birdie_xx Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Do you think this is a good set up ? I wonder how well do they work ? Up by the mirrors is probably the best, but is this better than the fork mounted ? BTW, this may be a less expensive alternative to the Motolights.... http://www.sporttouringusa.com/www/ST1300.htm Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davesXX01 Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Peter, what do U think about these: http://www.saeng.com/cutters.htm Lots of mounting options and awsome output. -Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byrdman Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Hey Peter, These look like a good option? I can't tell you about the bracketry but the lights are somewhat decent? http://www.electricalconnection.com/drivin...l_blackbird.htm Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG BOY Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I like the set up on the forks. I may have to mount mine before NEXXT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkbrdrydr Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Why screw around with aux lighting that doesn't do shit? :?: I currently use PIAA 910s with BLM Accessories brackets. Since I don't have a current photo of them on my bike, here's the ones that Warchild used to use which are 100% identical to my setup. http://superblackbird.com/3rdGenPIAA.cfm For the ultimate... here's the setup that Warchild uses on his FJR http://www.fjrtech.com/getdbitem.cfm?item=37 Anything other than HID lights to replace the OEM H7s or one of these two setups seems inadequate.

Warchild Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 $235 buys it all!! Price includes shipping to anywhere in CONUS! These babies will light up the road for a third of a mile in front of you! Pencil-beam lens allows you to safely use these on divided highways without blinding oncoming cars. These lamps are AWESOME! If you do any driving at night, these are one of the best weapons to have in your deer-avoidance arsenal! Here's what you get: - Two PIAA 910 Driving Lamps with pencil-beamed clear lens. - Original PIAA wiring harness and relay - two 55-watt PIAA Xtreme White H7 bulbs - BLM-Accessories PIAA brackets custom-built for the Blackbird! Here's how they look from the from front: Close up of the PIAA brackets for the BLackbird: Interested? PM me for payment details... basically, the first dude that drops $235 in my PayPal account gets them!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2equis Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Don't bother w/ aux. lights......HID's Baby!!!! the only way to fly. Less draw on the electrical system. Brighter, more useable light and no extra "stuff" hanging off the bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 I am the guy from the picture, and 2equis is right by saying that for more light you should buy the HID's. I use these sidelights to get noticed by the other traffic, they don't lite up the road. When driving at night I just remove the lens cover.

HERBXX Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 I bet for 120 per unit your could convert war childs lights to hid IF the hid bulb plug would fit in the housing .. Ive paid $100 and 120 , for each ballst and bulb im using ., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
