When I aquired my '95 Quota last year, one of the first things I noticed was how cr@p the standard headlights are.
Combined with a stern warning from Mario at Thunderbikes in Western Australia to "don't even think of fitting more powerful headlight bulbs!", for those who don't own Quotas, the standard bulb is a pair of 35/35 H4 5.75" inserts in an all plastic single unit.
So after my 6 week tour around Easter Victoria and southern NSW, an improvement was called for.
A Guzzi riding mate in Hobart had another mate in Perth who had come to the same conclusion, most of the 7
Quotas in Oz are in the west.
His fix was LED inserts in an Aluminium mount.
I wanted to be able to adjust either insert individually, and I like steel fabrication as it is more on the road repairable, and it involves triangles
So time to stop procrastinating and get stuck in.
Did I mention that I like triangles
A test ride tomorrow and it all has to come apart again for a coat of paint.
I am moderately happy with the outcome, but I always have regrets whenever I do one offs, as I can always find better ways of doping the job AFTER it is complete, but I will the WW2 winning "good enough, now" philosophy to live with for a while before revisiting it.
