National Cycle Light Bar

[Knapdog]

Now that I've made the sensible decision of keeping the Valkyrie instead of going for the Indian Springfield, I've got a bit of money to spend....



The closest appears to be from Italy, £387 ($488), plus there'll be Import Duty/Tax on top of that.

Just wondering if it would be cheaper from USA but my main query is if it's simple to fit. With my electrical knowledge it needs to be.

Roadstyler are in Poland and want about zl350 for a a light bar and lamps. Less than £100.
Your welcome

Make sure this particular light bar works with OEM wind shields (if you have one).

There ain't too many that don't interfere with the lower closed part of an original pane.

In general all roadstyler stuff is perfectly made and flawlessly chromed. You can't miss there.

That's what I've chosen for my aux lights on OEM hardware and shield:

So are you saying then Mike that the Roadstyler light bar will only fit (as I have original oem screen) if I also get those brackets?
BTW, the Roadstyler Light Bar doesn't have the incorporated indicators like the National Cycle one does.
So I'm a bit confused now...
Why does the National Cycle Light Bar include indicators instead of leaving the originals in situ?

 These mounts I mentioned are an alternative to any light bar that may interfere eventually. No bar needed at all. These mounts fit directly on OEM shield hardware. No relocation of indicator lights, too.

I just said that the roadstyler bar may not work with the large OEM shield. Product picture in shop are showing a somewhat shorter aftermarket wind shield and quite close gap to the added lights.

Just write to roadstyler and ask, if it would work with OEM windshield and hardware.

Some bars, like the National Cycle one I suppose would obfuscate the original indicator light position and therefore you must relocate them

For example the Fehling bar does not interfere with indicators, but wouldn't work with OEM windshield...

Any chance of a pic of your set up, Mike, if you're able and whenever convenient,  please?

My ride is disassembled for maintenance ATM.

But here's a picture of this setup from a fellow of mine:

Thank you.
Just checking...... Are you still able to remove the screen easily with your set up, for occasions where you want to ride without one, or do the spotlights now get in the way?

That's the only drawback.
As the auxiliary lights become a part of the screen,
You remove the screen, the 2 lights will go with it.
I installed 2 waterproof automotive connectors in the wiring for easy removal.

After I installed a vented wind shield replacement from clearview I had no more the need to remove it,  though.
Much better airflow around the helmet with it also. But that's another topic.

Is there available any sort of fitting, to the forks, or some other light bar, for example, whereby I can easily remove my original oem windshield, should I wish?

I have the exact same light bar and discoverd (via VRCC forum) that John Deere #4411 4.5" tractor LED's will fit as replacement bulbs , and that is what I've been running for over 10 years and they are BRIGHT.
