Extra Head lights.

[joerlund]

Hi...

My plan is to install two extra LED headlights. Flood & Spot.

They can be mounted on existing headlight housing, or on the front forks where they will "follow" the steering direction!

Do you have experience with similar projects, about advantages and disadvantages in relation to location?

Update ..

My first choice was mounting on the forks, but ran into cable challenges. Relieving cable when swinging.
Based on the existing headlight housing, and the manufacture of a bracket for mounting, I have come up with a good solution.
The bracket with the lights is nicely placed, and you actually have to go to your knees to spot the lights.

The next challenge is cabling ...
As I want to be able to enable both lights manually, by a switch, and then they will work in parallel with short and long light, using the original light switch.

But.... So many cables just for that solution ...
Hmmmm ...
