Title: new to forum......headlight question
Post by: jdubau55 on August 12, 2004, 10:19:50 AM
hey all. im getting a 90 gs pretty soon and i am gonna drop a few hundred into making it look a tad better. ive searched and found a few nice looking dual headlights running around. i was wondering where i could source the bual dual headlights or maybe an after market set. i came across a site the other day that had some i liked. the site started with a P maybe??? and was in the UK maybe???? anyways im looking forward to getting my bike.

I think both these outlets do "streetfighter" headlights.

www.mandp.co.uk

www.busters-accessories.co.uk

Both UK, I am sure you will find something closer to home.

also, check out http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/catalogue/category_list.asp?cls=MCYCLE&grp=MCC05&pgrp=MCP019&tlgrp=MC003

they have excellent prices... i like the "Sports Screen Twin Fairing Headlight".  It looks great on the GS.

Make sure you click on the US currency converter on the right side.

So how hard is it to mount one of those on a GS? Do I have to fabricate a bracket or is it just a bolt on replacement? I'll be doing a lot of highway riding and I'm looking for some decent looking wind protection.

never mind, I just noticed the holes on the sides.  Does anyone know if they'll provide any wind protection? Also pictures of them on a GS would be great.  :)

i like the acerbis one....im thinking about getting it but im but the number plate comes off so you might have to do without it cause it might hit the gauges
