Ya can always take the fog lights off since they aren't working and put on a nice set of paint to match fairing lowers and get some motolights

Did they go off when you switched the Hi-beams on?

Thats normally how they should have wired them as stock. If so you could have a problem with the hi-beam switch or ckt?

Hilarious, Dawg--Remove a $135 set of HD fog lamps to install $650 fairing lowers and $385 Motolights--very cost effective solution..................
Oh yeah, that's exactly what I did.

hehehe, I only jabbed him because he PM'd me about possibly getting lowers and motolights

I personally have a set of HD fogs that I am going to try and rig up somehow with a machined bracket or something to work with the lowers, but I haven't started yet.

Thanks Brothersd Jab On :)

I actually appreciate the jabs when it comes from folks who are friends and have helped lots in the past. You guys are great!

Yeah, well, that's probably what I will do... Is any of this habit cost effective? I'm pricing things out now... Now the question is do I wire the Moto's to the switch that the fog lights are wired to? Maybe the switch is bad?

Oh yes, how about leg room issues on the lowers? I really like setting my long legs out on the adjustable pegs that are about even with my floorboards... it's just as simple heel pivot and my size 12's are at a nice comfortable angle.

However, it will probably me 6-8 weeks before anything gets changed and I really miss those fog lights at night... plus I like the footprint it gave me during the day... no guarantee, but I was weird looking coming down the pike with 7 lights blaring...
