Am replacing my OEM FZ6N headlight with this unit, so i can mount clip-on handlebars for a bit of a modern take on the Cafe Racer theme.

I think i will modify the headlight unit to fit my existing mini LED indicators on each side, which should not be hard.

Looks awesome Wolfman! I'm really into the cafe racer theme and that would be a nice modern take. :thumbup::rockon:

It's a decent quality unit as well, with EC approved lights, 50w/55w.

I think i will need to paint it the same metallic gloss black as the rest of the bike....i just cant wait to get the thing....

Why can't you mount clip-ons with the stock FZ6N headlight? Just curious, I'm not exactly sure how the N headlight mounts, must be blocking something.

looks good, mean good.

It will definitely look bada$$! :rockon:

I like it. :thumbup:

 

[CCHOUSEKY]

I like that, Wolfman! That's gonna look sharp!

So, ah...whatcha planning on doing with the FZ6N headlight? That sure would look nice on the front of my bike (yeah, I know, I just did the Buell conversion, but the N headlight is cool!).

Probably be cheaper just to buy it here anyway, huh? LOL.

The reason you cant use clip-ons with the OEM FZ6N haedlight, is because, they headlight /front indicator mount brackets, sit virtually flush with the front of the forks, thus giving you no clearance for the clip on handle bars...you need to bring the headlight unit away from the fork legs, by about 80mm, before you have enough clearance for the clip-ons.

Lol! 3 people have asked me about the FZ6N headlight on my bike, since i posted this....

Sorry people, i will be keeping the OEM fz6 Headlight, just in case, i want to use it again.

Yes, this is Puig, i nearly got one of the 2 that had side by side projector lights....

What was your's called, and was it good? What where the lights like? Quality of the unit, overall?

:thumbup:

That is so cool....looking forward to seeing it on the bike!

mine was the streetfighter, i wanted the matrix, but not available at the shop i bought. the quality of the black is very good, i was very satisfied with it. i installed HID on the low beam.

That looks great, and thanks for posting the pictures, first time i have actually seen any of the Puig Cafe Rscer headlights on any bike! Nice to have a reference point.

Cheers.
