I know a couple of my fellow members have the Acerbis Cyclops on their XB and want some ideas....

Mounted directly below the flyscreen leaves a big gap....what have you guys done to mount the lights higher up so there is almost no gap? It looks like I would have to Dremmel off some of the side housing and then run the rubber straps behind the housing above the turn signal. Right?

Anybody got pics perhaps?

Here's a shot I found a while back (my apologies to the owner ... I can't give props 'cause I don't remember who it was) ... but I recall him mentioning alot of time cutting and recutting to make the custom bracket fit right (looks sharp though!).

Since we're on the topic of aftermarket headlights.....I've been wondering how this would look on an S.

I've been wondering what a V-Rod headlight would look like on my XB12Ss. I'd have to mount the instruments on a bracket, but the wires should all hide inside the headlight shell. Right?

"I've been wondering what a V-Rod headlight would look like on my XB12Ss"

Go look at the MV Brutale.... It will give you a loose approximation.

There was a guy on here that had the Vrod headlight on his CityX. Probably pics in archive somewhere.
