I like the Fishboy clamp and I really like the Joker Machine unit. My little bracket was in no way ever meant to be an alternative to either of those. I simply wanted something that made the lights blend in with the raw theme of the bike without a production part-look. I make alot of parts for alot of shops & out of all of those I never thought this simple bracket would be wanted by others.

I am not advertising these for sale. If you have PM'd me about one I will be happy to get one to you but I cut them by hand and I stay rather busy with everything else so please give me some time.

If you want to make one yourself I use 11 gauge plate. Drill 2 holes for the bar clamp bolts and 2 holes for the bezel/light bar mount screws then oval an area for the lights themselves. Then I cut out the shape & powdercoat what's left.

Here's a pic...please excuse the mess...this side of the shop tends to be the catch-all area.

Looks good mreed, I like that. I wish I had the ability (and shop) to try stuff like this... simple clean design, good job!

Looks real nice, do you still make them ? I'll be interested.
Thanks
