sv650 headlight options
I've been searching online for options for a different headlight for my '03 sv650. Anybody have any ideas? I found a dual light option at whaccessories.com. Any ideas or reviews appreciated.

Jonboy and Big Ape both have twin headlight setups on their SVs, looks neat.
If they don't come along soon and post up their pics, I'll see if I can find one.

As far as looks go they're great. Really give the bike a visual "extra". As for light output, the standard single headlight is far superior, however the difference isn't great enough for me to switch back.
Installation was easy, the only problem being, what to do with all the cabling? Currently I have mine all taped up until I find a better and more permanent solution. Busters £60. . |

Yes while that's true the beam is less bright/focussed as the reflectors don't do as good a job as the single larger one in the stock light IMHO.
