Looking at these right now. Called the manufacture and they come highly rated. A local 4 wheel shop has them, so I'll check them out this weekend. Looking at the SR-M Driving or Spots

I see a lot of comments about the Motolights. I made my own out of dyna turn signals, gutted the housings, added led inserts and bulbs to them. Bought the extra swivel bracket from HD, pulled the lower caliper bolt and then reused it to mount the lights. I have about $150 in this set up and they are down where you need them. They don't look half bad either.






I'm still debating on the Daymakers for my Shark. Love the look but I'm too damn cheap to spend the $$ on them even with the 20% off dealers.

They look good and by the pics, put out decent light....The biggest plus is the price....You should put a parts list together for us other "cheap" SOB's.....

I too would be interested in a parts list. I'm about to drop $200 for another set of LED lights, so this would help. I'm wondering if you used a Cree bulb and how you reduced the voltage to it (resistors and what about the heat?) and what you used for a reflector.
Thanks!!!

I have a set of these on my truck and am very happy with them, but as far as on the bike...I wouldn't put them on mine, I think it would out of place...

Although the company is great to work with and they are local to me out here.

look at these
http://www.rigidindustries.com/SR-M-...-p/sr-m-fl.htm

I'm going to ride my biker over to the 4 wheel drive shop tomorrow to look at them and see where they could be mounted. These lights are twice the lumens of the Custom Dynamic lights and cheaper. With the CD lights, once you mount them on your bike they are yours.....sucks.

Looks good in form and function, now to find a suitable mounting location.....

Anyone have the proper adjusting heights for this light? I lost my paperwork that came with the light. Perhaps it's aimed too high and that's why in turns it looses some.
