LED's

Got a delivery yesterday so I was puttering in the garage today and did my LED's. Mrs. 2LZ wants to do some evening and night rides this summer on her TT250 so I'm trying to stay ahead of the game. There's boatloads of deer here, to the point of almost riding through a horse pasture, so night vision in critical. I'm getting the same for her TT250 but I'll be wiring it into the "A1" outlet instead of needing to mount a separate switch like I did on Q.

The switch matched good enough and more importantly, fit with minimal adjustments.
I used a chrome Harley bracket I had laying around, whacked it in half, drill pressed a couple holes and bent them accordingly for the lower triple tree mounts. The rest was just wiring and zip tying to clean it up. I think I may black out the little bracketing just to make it a little more sano.

That is where I want to mount mine but on the hawk the fairing is to long and you can't turn the wheel all the way with them mounted like that.

These barely touch at full lock. I may end up spacing the little brackets out from the lower tree with a couple washers...just because I'm anal.

Got them on Amazon. When they ship to Volcano for FREE, I do a lot of Amazon! ;-)

Lights. Yes, they come in a pair and got real good reviews.

I am sorry, this is totally unrelated to your post. I just joined the website, but have no idea how to use it (I'm not used to these old style websites). How do I make a new post?

Welcome; I see you learned how to post. I noticed your other thread in our Introduce Yourself Forum.

You did a nice job, 2LZ. Please let us know how well the auxiliary lights work.
