And came across this BUELL DRIVING LAMP KIT. Notice any issues with this picture? Maybe the 6 inches of suspension travel, and only 3 inches between the lights and the fender? It's ok though, their description says they've sold hundreds of kits to people with this exact vehicle. |

Nice, grab a random Buell media photo and photoshop in some extra lights! |

I was thinking of making a new fender and molding lights into the sides so that there wouldn't be clearance issues. Hella has some really nice small round fog lights (micro DE), I have them on my car and they are pretty damn good. |

Greg you can use longer screws and just use your stock fender

Greg you can use longer screws and just use your stock fender and get directional lights in the process (that Firebolts lack), nice idea |

Nope, I don't want it to look that bulbous so I want to mold it in as close as possible. My big concern is the 110 watt draw. But that is way down the list of things to do unless I pick up a set of lights and a fiberglass fender really cheap. |

Also if the Micro DE are mounted sideways like that they will spread the beam in the vertical direction, I don't think they have a side mount option. |

Well electrical draw isn't an issue, I draw something in the area of 300w on mine |

I purchased some compact HID's at Trail Tech. They were relatively cheap, for HID and I was concerned they might not hold up but so far, they haven't failed. http://trailtech.net/sport_motorcycle_lights.html (Message edited by Ferris_von_bueller on November 04, 2009) |
