Title: Norge Aux Driving Light?
Post by: TobyJug on September 24, 2015, 10:05:27 PM

I was thinking about putting some of these Denali mini aux driving lights on my front fender ..

until I took one of the screws out to see what size it is and it's smaller than either the 5 or 6mm bolts supplied with the fender mounting kit.  Has anyone mounted any aux driving lights on their fenders?  Is it okay?

I put a driving lamp under the front of the fairing. Lights attached to the fender will bounce as the bike encounters bumps and so on. The lamps might also put stresses on the plastics from the constant up and down vibrations and create cracks.

If you run a search you should come up with some solutions that might work for you. I have found that the light s on the Norge are very good and over driving them takes quite a bit. Nevertheless, several of us have mounted additional lighting.

Here is a link but others have done some nice work, check around.

$315 for only a 5 watt LED light?    :shocked:

Thanks Norge Pilot - some good points there.  I'm looking to be more visible so the further the lights are apart, the better.  And I'd rather not screw into the tupperware.  Back to the drawing board ...
