Venturous Randy Posted July 9, 2010 Share #1 Posted July 9, 2010 Several years ago I went to Walmart and picked up a couple of fog/running lights for about $16. I mounted them in the front vents which are useless to me with the lower fairings removed and I really like how well they work. They give a good pattern out to about 100 feet and also give good light down around my feet. Since I have them wired to the battery thru a fuse and switch, if for some reason I blew the main 40 amp fuse, which I did once, I still have lights and I think that is a great safety feature. I also upgraded my MKI headlight to a MKII light assemble and with a PIAA headlight bulb, I actually have pretty good lights for an 83 model.

bongobobny Posted July 9, 2010 Share #2 Posted July 9, 2010 Now that's a pretty decent mod, Randy! Myself I used a set of Squidley mounts only mounted them different than designed. I agree, why use expensive motorcycle passing lamps when Wally World lamps work just as good for a lot less bucks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dano Posted July 9, 2010 Share #3 Posted July 9, 2010 Thats a great idea Randy! Might move mine up there and out of the wind, so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydoc_17 Posted July 9, 2010 Share #4 Posted July 9, 2010 Hey Randy, I really think you were thinking "Out of the Box" with this location. What a good Idea. I had the Ventureline Brackets on my 87'VR and chose to run a pair of lights on each side, an LED Spot light on top and a Amber Halagen on the bottom. I have since added a blue LED to the intake vent under the headlight which pretty much gives me a "light show" at night. Thanks for sharing the pics, and your cool ideas, Earl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
