Default dual headlights

I always thought that duals look cool.
Here's my cheap solution. Vinly to match your color scheme, fold into two, use scissors to cut an arc, find center and paste.

Yeah you're right... does look pretty cool. I photoshop'ed one on mine and the more I look at it, the more I like it! Makes the bike look that little bit more modern too. Now to go find some red that matches the bike! LOL!

From a company off the internet in San Francisco. But they took more than 6 months to ship so don't even bother. I think thatthey were then waitingon the manufacturer. I am sure that if you search the netyou will find a seller who has it in stock.Its a zero gravity touring windshield.It makes a huge difference in how fast I can go.The stock windshield was of no help in speedsover 100mph ( 180 kph).This touring windshieldprotects me up to about 145 mph, which is really allmy ***** allow me to do on the highway. It is the best modification out there for those who want to go fast.

That does look cool. How does it effect the already pathetic beam at night?

Very little, if any.I still am looking for ways of usingbrighter bulbs within the stock specifications of 45/45W. I had previously used higher wattagehalogens to disastrous effect. Some forum members have talked aboutinstalling a fuse box for thismodification butI am loathe to introduce any resistance (wires)into the circuitry since the regulator is not adjustable.

Why not use HID's ? They use less amps.
