    Isleen's "standard" view from a cage.
    That's a Whelen white LED bar attached to the fork plastic shroud and it turns with the forks.
    Everything else is SoCal LED lighting.
    Her high beams have a Kisan modulator that I'll run when I'm NOT in traffic, but rather on long country roads so people coming the other way who think they can safely pass think twice and just wait.
    Running the modulator in dense traffic just really irritates people - that's why the modulator is not on my low beams.

    53 driver,that is a golden idea. I ride the mountains sometime late in the day and it's dark. I recognised my problem was I cant see around the turns because my headlight are not moving with the forks. On the platics over the fender is where you mounted those ? Genius !

    Not exactly...
    There is a plastic "half-moon" mounted below the triple tree, forward of the forks. It will not support anything heavier than a small light bar.
    I'll get a pic if you want.
    Cheers,
