Subject: Clearwater lights installation Wed Jun 26, 2013 8:18 am
Anyone installed the OE kit supplied by Clearwater onto the front fender mount? Not sure what angle to use for the mounting brackets that will not interfere with the travel of the front forks. There needs to be enough clearance between the installed lights and the fairing under braking. This may not be so easy to determine by trying to load the shocks in a static situation. But hoped that someone had confronted the problem already, before my having to "re-invent" the wheel

If you are going to use this light bar, which I should have purchased ready made, but had my own made, please be careful not to over tighten, because you will crack the topper-wear.

I always provide special spacers to prevent damage to the scooter. They look like small aluminum Zorro hats that fit inside of the fairings rubber mounting grommets. I try to provide a product that is thought out.
