Looking for a lightbar for my ride... I'm particularly fond of this one, any ideas what brand it is?

National cycle light bar might not work with a OEM shield, in case that matters...

I have one on my Bike with the OEM windshield. You will have to cut the windshield straight down from the headlight cut out and radius the corners. I would change out the red wires to black so don't show up as mine does in the photo. Also I found when I wired mine per there instructions it kept blowing fuses so I wired them in direct with an inline fuse and toggle switch.

My Standard had a lightbar wired together with the headlight, supposedly installed by the dealer for the original owner. That was a mistake, it fried the starter switch so badly it couldn't be rebuilt.
I installed relays for the lightbar and headlight with a separate fused power supply.
No worries now. The new starter switch only carries the current needed to trigger the relays.

Using black heat shrink tubing is easier and neater than changing wires.
