Hi peeps, Got a 2000 M2 Cyclone with the 8 inch light up front, thinking of fitting a twin light unit of a 2005 XB12S to make it look more cooool, apart from the mounting points which are different, how will I rewire the two seperate lights to the existing loom, and will my wiring take the extra load and what would be the best screen to fit taking into consideration I only have the one gauge (speedo) to cover and most of them are shaped for the extra fitments, any info please :worthy: thanks Geoff.

Geoff - Think you'll find that whilst they may (or may not) look cool, the light output is less then impressive.

If you want different - you could look at GSG in Germany - nice billet clamps. And there is a German brand of imported Chinese stuff called SHIN-YO - they have unusual lights. They have ready made twin projector lens kits. and dual normal stuff. How about a pair of street triple lights?.

Found something "unusual" on ebay too today - in the UK. Fork down-tube mounted spotlights. http://cgi.ebay.es/Spot-Lights-50mm-For ... 2c5d6e6c91
