I called and spoke to a lady there and she's gonna email me some measurements. In the top picture the two barrel nuts mount up to what I believe is the our headlight mount screws. She said she could email me what they call a paper doll.????? Guess it a picture of the item and you print and cut it out an then use it to test fit.

Got a paper template. Looks like an exact fit. Ordered it already. If anyone would like the file, I can send to you.

Cool, I'm anxious to see some good pix. A lightbar upgrade has been on my to-do list for awhile.... |

It's a perfect fit. Just need longer headlight mounting bolts.  However. You either need a light with a rear mount or very shallow back. The mounting hole is directly in front of the forks. You could go to their website and by some offset brackets and lights, but to deep for my shallow pockets.  I have some bullet turn signals that are middle mounted so wont work, unless I fab a bracket. Gonna order these and try them too. http://www.ebay.com/itm/222300834206 |

I once ordered a set of LED lights from Big Bike Parts (not these) that mounted the way these do... maybe there's a shallow set of lights with this mounting scheme that would work?  -Mike |

Way to deep from mount to back of light. Hang on let me measure....... OK only 7/8 of an inch from center of hole to fork tube.

Yes, it was off the link you provided. The blinkers look to be offset of the lights. |

No, it was just one of the pics in your link. Call or email. It may not be that much. |

Those lights work well on the engine guards where you get the visibility triangle. Lights up near the headlight may give you more light but they don't achieve the triangle for other's visibility of you.  |

Just attaching turn indicators. I checked the price on JUST the spot lights and turn indicators from that pic. 684 bucks. Not even counting the bar and headlamp.

Yes , I looked at those. Another 60 plus shipping. Then you have to have the lights with the mount already attached at the bottom.

Yes, they're a bit pricy..... I ordered the bar on Monday, before you posted your pix. It'll be here today. If I find something that works, I'll post it here... I wonder why they're on sale....slow seller? |

Yes, great chrome. In pic it still has the plastic wrap on it. But you can tell on one end. |
