Default Who's added lights to a Road Glide ?

The 'High Beams' thread got me wondering.

Who has added extra lights to their Road Glide ?

I also ride with my high beams on all day. Occasionally, I'd like to flash my beams to signal a car in front of me, but then they'd know I already had my high beams on.

I'd stick some lights on top of my highway bars, but I have fairing lowers. As I see it, I'd have to mount the lights under the lowers, basically on the ground where they may not be seen and they'd be getting broken by rocks and stuff all the time.

I put all the side lights and taillights on my TourPak, even though I didn't want to because they kinda clutter up the bike, and I think simplicity is one of the RG's virtues. Basically, I want as much visibility as I can get. It doesn't need to be pretty. Well, maybe a little.

Any ideas I haven't seen or thought of ? Do you have pictures ?

Those passing lamps on all the EGs and all sure have me envious. I wish I had a place for them.

I have Motolights caliper mount lights, they are 50 watt lights and are amazing. They are guaranteed as long as I own them including the bulbs. Check them out www.motolight.com/ You won't be jealous of those crappy spots on the Electra Glides anymore.

While at Street Vibs I saw some nice looking Kury driving lights that mount at the turn signals.Could not see how the were at night ,but they sure looked better than the crashbar mounted units.
