well i just finished up my headlight project for my m2. it may not be some peoples cup of tea but i like to be different.

a lot of cutting and fab work to get it to work and be functional.

ww2 gas mask
HID projectors
made adjustable brackets
cut headlight housing and this is what i got.

Cool, definitely different. Looks like you have some good fabrication skills.

While I'm not sure I'd do it myself, it is a fun look. Tell me about the HIDs. What brand, model?

plans so far:
chop rear back to the oil tank(make seat)

smaller brake/turn signals

smaller turn signals up front

go down to one smaller mirror up front

maybe a color change to egg shell white or urban camo.
40 shot of n20
and after all that i will be ready for more engine work sitting at 1300cc and cammed right now.

LoL @ Es.



looks like you did a good job of fitment, but makes the bike look a bit too cartoony for me. I was never a fan of characture front lighting fascia

One of the Buellers over here in the U.K has been running a set up like that on an X1 for a number of years now

Great prepper bike. How do the head lights work through the gas mask lenses? Any degradation of the light output?
