Driving Lights on a I/S

I really don't want to bore holes in the lowers for a stock like driving light kit. Does anyone know if any of the available light bars that mount to the bottom of the triple tree clear the fairing?
Open to other options as well, just don't care to cut or modify the plastic.

You naturally see that there is precious little room for such when you turn the handlbars from lock to lock.
The better opportunities are farther down on the front but still the room is at a premium.

Motolights mounted to the lower forks.
A bit pricy but work well. Also look at mounting
under tripls trees.

Look for Fordmano's multi upgrade thread, around page 4 or 5 he discusses lights under the tripple trees. They have to be small at least in height, or they'll dent the fender. I have some like his that I'll be installing later this summer.

The PIAA '1100X' or '005' universal kits for honda (w. wiring harness) will do nicely.
