does anybody have any pics or ideas on headlights for race plastic. mainly the gsxr style?
looking for some new plastic. i love my bike, but i'm growing tired of the look. looking for something like this :arrow:

, but with lights.

i had those exact plastics on my bike the cheetah ones. what i did was i went to liek autozone or pep boys or anyother auto parts store and bought the highest wattage driving lights (fog lights) that i could find that were not too tall. then i drilled 2 holes under the fairing and mounted the lights and just wired them into the existing headlight wiring harness here are some pictures.

do they put out enough light for riding or are they just on there to be legal?
has anybody put a gsxr headlight in or done stacked lights like the new ducs?

i was gonna do teh stacked lights but that probally would have required some more fiberglass work to be done to make them look right. the fog lights put out plenty. plus i put like 120 watt bulbs in them. definatly bright enough. could see them from miles away lol

I've done both but not in a full fairing.

I have a friend who did redid his F2 after a lowside, and installed a projector light from a Passat (if I recall correctly) into a set of race plastics.

I'm doing something similar, but not nearly as detail oriented with a set of corvette lights in a set of gp composites gsxr bodywork.. Ant. is a stickler for details and doing things 'right', he said he learnt a lot from painting and finshing the bike (now sold for an rr) but most of all he learnt to pay someone else to do it next time :lol:
