I own a pair of auxiliary lights and I'm without ideas to mount them.
I don't like them in the forks.
The best place, I think, and they will be discrete, is under the front fairing, centered with the headlights, but I need to make some kind of bracket to fit them there.
So I thought, if it...

Do you know any cheap or DIY wind deflector for the legs/ Knees?
My favorite deflector is to expensive GTR 1400 :spank: (maybe some day)
I already inquire some companies about "fairing lowers" but their also a bit expensive for now.

I found this funny, An Elephant parked in a parking lot, and I thought maybe you want to show us your bike with an animal... not human... Real Aliens may participate also!
FZ6: 98 Horses + 1 White Elephant
I will try a real animal next time, but not a real Elephant for sure!
This is what I need for my FZ6, laser headlights! Audi and BMW (German) are introducing the first production vehicles with this technology. They claim the laser last forever and is 1000 times brighter than LEDs with half of the power consumption!

I never liked the "engagement point" of the clutch in the FZ6 because it's too far from the grip, I like it in the first third of the lever play. So I asked for your help here:

It might sound silly but I have a question and I can't find a satisfying answer for it.
I will add an extra headlight because I run lot of kilometers at night. I will also add a switch especific to this light. Now, what should I connect in the switch, the positive or the negative wire? And why...
