Alright here is the deal. The headlight visor on our bikes is pretty weird. Lets see some pics of altered headlight mounts. Obviously you need to have your speedo relocated first or you are not going to have much room. I know you can pretty much DYI you own mounts, but lets see some differnt headlight options.

Thats awesome. I am assuming you just fabbed the metal brackets up?
Also what kind of headlight is that? I dont really know what headlight are compatable.
nice work and thanks for the pics.
Yessir...
The bracket was super easy to fab up. Just made a couple bends. The light came with a bracket to mount to the lower tree, but I was a bit worried about making the lower tree weak and I wanted to do something different than everyone else. I'm putting my apes on this weekend, so we'll see how it looks with those. If the lines dont flow, I'll just drill the triple tree and mount it lower. Thanks for the compliment and I'll post some pics once I get my Burly 14"'s on.
Oh yeah, I got the light on ebay. Just follow the link.

Sweet motor drum. You just flipped the stock light. Looks smooth. I like your route too.
Looks pretty simple.
thanks for the link AL. Did you fab up your own mounts on the light too? I am also assuming the cable for the headlight has the same plug as the stock light.
