Default Angel eye HID install

I need your opinions on this please. Vertical or horizontal?

If they're horizontal they'll be mounted to fork clamps, if they're vertical I'm thinking of mounting them to the stock frame mounts so they wouldn't turn with the bars.
I'm still making the rear plastics and they've still to be painted. Possibly the same silver as the tank/fairings. And no they won't be held together with tie wraps

The angel eyes can be used as parking lights, but since the headlights can't be turned off on pointys it doesn't really matter anyway

horizontal looks best, and if they will then turn with the bars then win win.

Vertical, mounted on fairing bracket mounts. So long as you can make nice neat mounts.

Just because every crashed sportsbike in the world ends up with horizontal twin lamps mounted to forks. And it is more to mess with when you have to take forks out.
