Pointy side light, do I need them?
Hi, perhaps some of you can shed light on a question I have.
I am have a bullet camera than I am going to put on my bike with the DVR under the pillion seat however I don't want the camera to stick out anywhere. It looks like it will fit in place of one of the sidelights. So the question is do I need to have both of them if any at all. I am planning on have both main lights as dipped so if one fails I have the other. If I do need sidelights. Does anybody have any idea where I can mount the camera? It's about 22mm in diameter by 40mm long. Or where can I put some new sidelights? Cheers Dave |
Re: Pointy side light, do I need them?
yes you need sidelights as its an MOT requirement but you could get a pair of LED's and stick them anywhere on the front as long as they are visible.
|
Not sure where I can put them so they don't look stuck on! Any suggestions?
How easy is it to split the headlamp unit? |
Re: Pointy side light, do I need them?
Why not mount your camera in the vents in the black lower section of the fairing? You can do a lot with these and it does not show too much, I have a front facing set of indicators in mine.

I did think of in the air vent but the camera would have to come out a bit to have a clear view past the fairing. I may rig up a temporary bracket and have a look at the weekend.

normal lights may make bullet cam go bright? Maybe ?
|
@joe. How do you mean?

Like if u put it in side light bit . Your normal beam may light the front causing no image? Or light reflecting on glass and having same affect

Re: Pointy side light, do I need them?
Both headlight have both main and dipped beam (H4 bulbs). There isn't a main only one unlike some bikes.
|
@joe I see what you mean. @ MJC. Yeah thats what I mean. I plan to have one bulb and a relay run on original wire and the dipped filament of other headlamp be switched from the battery via the relay unless the original wiring& switch can cope with both!
