I am getting near the end of my project, now i am going to get a new head light for it.

What do you think?
A crash is the result of the rider's mistake, so don't blame the bike

A rider should be able to control the bike but not controlled by the bike, becuase on the track you don't want to DNF and on the road you don't want to lose you licence

Have any pics of the progress soo far? Might be easier to tell that way..

Do something new.  Go with at least eight lights.

I say do something different.  I do like the look of the double rounds, but so do 70%+.  Why not have something different?

This has been done by another member; erbilabuc, and i personally like it.  Its cheap, and seems relatively easy.

if you really want to look different, put a F light on your E. it looks badass, people will bug you about "dude is that the new baby b king I heard my cousins uncles nephew talk about ?"

I had this for a while .....




then i thought well hides the wiring and gives a really clean look

100 quid , i got back for the headlight so it was all good!

Now that I think I might like.  I'd have to have a better picture to tell for sure though.  No way to tidy up the wiring?

You should do 2 round lights, but the ginormous 8" cafe racer lights. Actually, the F stock light looks pretty tight IMO
