Any rust problems on those $45.00 to $100.00 lights? Chrome flake etc.

so far mine is flawless. as far as mounting, all I did was drill a hole dead center between the fork tubes and fine a long enough allen bolt. There's a hollow between the ribs under there and the head snuggled right inside, hidden from sight.

It looks great on your bike. I like the way it is mounted it flows with the bike. Great Job Timber.

Accessories Unlimited Chrome Headlight 5.75 x 7 Tribar from the EP site.



I'm really impressed with the chrome on this thing although it's only been on one season. There is a little rust inside the recessed allen part of one of the mounting bolts but not the bucket itself.

Only problem mounting was I had to buy to buy a different length mounting bolt.

Mine has been on for about 6k miles now. No rust, flakes, chips, ect... and its from Eastern performance. Usually get what you pay for, but its going good so far.
