Maybe you can pm him, but I would think that Motolight would know what size you need.

I had them on the forks of my S3T ... they worked very well.

Talk to these guys, they'll be able to help you out.

Hi,

I have them installed on my forks and the measurement I used to order was 6.875".

They are somewhat tricky to install. I especially had trouble on one side and ended up having to file the the inside of the bracket where it butts against the fork to get it close enough to be able to start the retaining bolt. I also used a ratcheting type of pliers that I bought at Sears some time ago to pull the the ends together. This is probably hard to understand until you see the parts.

I am very pleased with them. The lighting is excellent and makes up for the lousy headlight. I am always getting compliments on them especially at the shop where I bought my bike. They look like they were made for it. I also reinstalled the reflectors just below the light brackets.

bought mine from CycleGadgets as well.
Did the black lights and fork mounts, with aluminum sliders.

Looks great!
