Hi Guys

I've been checking the forum to the point I'm blind!!

I have fitted OEM engine guards. I want to fit some spotlights but I'm struggling to find light mounts over this side of the pond. All the US suppliers I have looked at don't ship over the water. So does anyone have any suggestions?

Any help greatly appreciated

Matt

Yamaha sells PIAA mounts. Many are designed along these lines. Heck they might all be the same manufacturer for all I know. The only difference I have seen is one version comes with two holes of different sizes to mount various lights with different sized bolts. Also, the sleeves for differing bar diameters come in different materials occasionally.

Not sure if they ship to the EU. No free shipping beyond the lower 48 US states, but great product at very reasonable price. Price is for one bracket, not one pair. Use the 7/8"-1" size. I have these and they have proven to be very tough and rock solid. KC Highlites

I have looked at the KC ones Eric but I don't think they ship over here.

Hey Matt,a simple way to get around the shipping problemo..use a forwarding company like reship.com .They give you a US postal adress and forward to you.

I got some off of eBay for £20 and they work great. When I had the oem crash bars I screwed straight into the fixings on the bars themselves. Couple of pics attached.

I don't have the OEM bars, but looking at it on my bike I feel pretty confident that they would work with those bars. Admittedly I don't have a way to measure for you, but maybe someone else who has used them in tandem could post up to help you out.
I was curious on this lightbar. On the left side (radiator side) does the auxiliary light block any air from getting in to cool the radiator? None of the pictures in the air show the left side. I like this option but do not want to block any air flow into the radiator.
