Where would you mount these??

[mattwitt]

Just picked up a set of these.. Where would you mount them on the FZ6? Mine is a 2008... I see a few options on the front near the fender but seeing what others thought or may have done.

i bet you could make some small brackets that tie into the front blinkers, like those small metal brackets that drop down to hold the blinkers.

Thought so too but the brackets are mounted with two screws into platic parts of headlight. Additional weight might be too much and losen the mounts / screws.

I have those exact same ones. I bought some fork brackets from Twisted Throttle to go along with them. Mine are mounted to the fork using the stock Philips head screw/bolt that attaches the front fender to the fork.

You can see them taped up in this picture here from my first track day.

Thanks guys.. After looking at it and wanting to get them lower to the ground I mounted them on the Fender Bolts in front of the forks.. I haven't wired them in yet.. But will give a full review once I do that..

kinda expensive ,,,go to Amazon and order set of 2 for $32..


where to mount it right on the reflector of the front tire, there is a bracket with holes that reflector mounted on it, rid of reflector and mount the lights on!

I did that for my 07 FZ6

good luck!

Yep that's where I mounted mine, took off the reflectors and then you have the metal bracket to mount

BTW, that spotlight is WAY WAY too expensive. I got the LED spotlights for $24/par....there is no way I would spend more than $50 for a spotlights!

Which ones on Amazon are only $32? Would like to look at them as I have a buddy with a KLR that wants a pair..

I've decided to splash out on some cheaper versions of these. I don't know if it's better to get ones with a reflector or projector lens. Any advice?

I was thinking maybe these or [ame="http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00K5NI0X6/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=2YP3OASLHLXLZ&coliid=I97L5DDKWQPT1"]these [/ame](I'm not interested in the difference of 2watts in power). Opinions? With explanations please!
