You could go for something like aztec8 / hella 6inch slotted lights if you've got the monies. Prob not worth cack at night though...

Hmm not sure about that. Cheers though.

There's a yamaha with indicators built into plastics round the tank that's quite beefy looking with a hornet style headlight but I can't for the life of me remember the model. Wonder if I could plonk one of those on ...

thank! it's the yamaha equivelent of that, but that looks just as good. Might have to do a bit of photo shopping to see what it's look like with my clock. Or I might have to see if I could modify my clocks. There's some nice benelli's actually. Wonder what a tnt headunit would look like.

Or would it look a bit big http://www.motorcycle.com/images/con...os_BenT_14.jpg

Looking at it from the side though looks like there'd be plenty of room for the clocks. Wonder how the electrics would go...it's only a light, can't see it being that difficult - then again they are italian.
