So seeing a custom bike without the lights on isn't all that unusual. Especially when many of them are actually made from older production bikes and thus exempt from the law.

make sure you tighten the mounting nut nice and solid if thats your negitive otherwise it will spark like crazy as it starts to work loose. google part number of light to confirm what colour is high beam and what is low beam. if you get them mixed you will blow the lamp when you stick to much voltage through what should be the low beam.

Safety is definately a factor especially here in Colorado Springs where some of our motor vehicle operators are questionable at best.
My real issue is having machine my mount down just to fit my new headlight!! And keep it from looking ugly. The mount I need to fit the light needs to be kicked foward and away from the triple trees about 2"....The new light uses a 3/4" wide mount. Mine is 1"....
I knew buying a cheap custom light would pose a few install issues but I didnt expect the mount sizing to be sized so differently.
