I'm looking to add bright driving lights to my Interstate.  Would prefer Chrome and something around 3.5-4.5 inches in diameter.   

There are highway pegs mounted to the side of the crash bars, so mounting to the top of these might be possible... or on the bottom if they don't interfere with steering and corners.

Thanks,
Jersey

Have you looked at motolights?

Caliper mount Motolights are the bomb, but cost a small fortune.  https://motolight.com/product/light-set-caliper-mount/

There are a lot of bright and small leds that will fit somewhere on the guards, but most are not chromy shiny.  But a small black plastic unit may be pretty hidden in there.

Here's a pair of chromy ones.  https://www.amazon.com/GOODKSSOP-Spotlight-Headlight-Universal-Motorcycle/dp/B074X7KH3D/ref=asc_df_B074X7KH3D/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=241970175828&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11324008665152251054&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9008139&hvtargid=pla-463394726536&psc=1

One of my bikes came with bright small PIAA spots (1100X) mounted on a single hole drilled in the fork wings (below the fairing) (silver plastic, not chrome).  They are bright halogens (with a draw to them), and it's a clean look, but they do not provide the light separation to oncoming traffic that are ideal.  Far out ahead, those lights and the dual headlights just become one single bright light.  So they are good for seeing, but not great for being seen.

Have anyone added a Show Chrome light bar on an Interstate,

I've got a pair of chrome superbrights I just mounted to the bottom bolt of the radiator pod.  Have a small  piece of innertube between bracket and pod to keep from scratching anything.



If I remember correctly the guys from the Texas board put me on to some cheaper ones I converted to LED but I ended up buying some more expensive ones and stuck the cheaper ones on a Shadow.
