    This week I decided to add some additional lights to the front end. The idea behind this was:
    1-I do a lot of night riding.
    2-More visibility.
    3-I wanted lights that turn with the steering.

    I bought a set of fog lights for $40.00, a relay, a toggle switch and a rubber boot. I fabricated the brackets out of 22 gauge sheet metal. Total cost about $56.00.

    Here's the result.

    I just finished the job and everything works fine. Haven't test ridden the bike yet to adjust the aim.

    Fog lights by their nature won't do much to improve your night riding unless, of course, there is fog. I'd be interested in your results and I do like your adaptation.
