    Lightbar for Denali lights

    I recently installed the R&G crashbar and put Denali lights on it.  Considering what a pain that was I'd like to move them to a lightbar so that taking the bodywork off for service will not require doing all that again.  Is there something similar to the one on my America?  Something that would mount under the headlight and put the lights out to the side of the bike?

    I mounted my D3 Spots on the underside of the mirror covers.  I placed a short brace bar inside to spread the load and they worked great.

    The D3 Fogs were mounted on the crash bars with the connector just outside the side grills.  I wrapped the excess cable around the crash bars.  Removal was easy-peasy.  Just unplug and then remove the crash bars as normal.

     ladisney, I also mounted my larger LED lights under the mirrors similar to how tdragger did. But on last service the technician told me one mirror was cracked and he had to plastic weld it. He then put extra [on top of what was already in place] bracing on the inside. On my 50CC that I did on the 25th. August I had no issues with the lights moving.
      As to the seat issue, again as Coconut stated the best fix is a Russell Day Long replacement, but be aware it can be an expensive fix, but the perfect fix. I personally have an Airhawk with a lambswool cover over it. I've done this to also lift me up higher than the highest seat position  to open up my knee joints [I'm 6' 1.5" tall].
      Hope these suggestions help. Cheers.  :821: :028:

    I think I will design a light bar for the Trophy and have a metal fabricator I know put it together.  If I like the result I will post it.
