Would anyone be interested in these??
Got bored and came up with these....let me know what you think
Wanted a different look for my front whichways. So removed the originals from sides of front end, and replaced with a set of PIAA off-road driving lights (extremely bright). For my idea i was going to recess a 9 light LED strip into my engine guard. This came to be welding a coffin for the LED strip then cutting the recess into the guard. Then when positioned perfectly tig welded then ground and filed to a nice smooth radius on all four sides of "coffin". Then tapped two holes,cut to fit the snug fitting gasket and drilled an access hole on top of engine guard under neck but on the bottom side of tubing so no water can get in.Powdercoated and sunk light strip in its position, ran wires up and inside engine guard exiting through a tight grommet around access hole. Simply re-wire to existing oem directional wires and WHALLAAA!!.............If this is something that someone is interested in shoot me a PM. Only thing is, im not close to a chroming plant so if you want chromed you'd have todo that yourself, but powdercoat, no problem........

RE: Would anyone be interested in these??
Are there lights that would fit in there that are powerful enough to throw out over some distance?
Something like driving lights as opposed to markers. I like the ideabecause they can work on bikes with lower fairings.
