aux lights for a Norge
« on: December 21, 2025, 05:09:22 PM »
Like the title states….looking for suggestions from those who’ve mounted them. A) mounting solution and B) wiring ideas. My wireless charging hub is connected to the connector for the factory GPS. Looking for a similar solution. TIA…

I've had Moto Lights on my Norge for a long time, they mount to the front brake calipers...you can order them with LED or standard halogen lights.  I put a different switch on them that is illuminated at night and mounted to the left hand side.

But to be fair, there are tons of lights driving lights on Ebay that come already with the switch built into the wiring as well, make sure you get a fused (inline) setup.

Any chance you’d be willing to post a pic of how yours are mounted to the caliper? I’m presuming through the caliper mounting bolt with post style mount system/clamp on the light unit?

And yeah…tons of options for lights…for my intentions, more for being seen than a need to see more than with the OEM head lights. Been exceedingly foggy here so far this year.

Sure...will get some close up pics in the morning.  They are quite a bit pricier than the standard driving lights you can find these days (they were nowhere near this expensive a decade or so ago), but they have been impeccable for many many years.  A few years ago I switched out the halogen inserts to LED's...quite a bit brighter!

Denali lights mounted to the crash bars on my Breva 1100. I also removed the stock headlight and used a generic shell and led light. Replacing the stock headlight made a huge difference!

From a previous post several years back:

Step by step of the conversion can be found here using the same components as the original poster:

Headlight bucket I ($55) used came from here:

And here is the headlight ($39)

My 2023 Alfa Romeo has standard-equipment fog lamps. Imagine my surprise when I found they were two, small bright white lamps pointing backwards at the rear of the car. If you are routinely riding a motorcycle in a foggy area you stand a good chance of being hit from the rear. You may consider putting some lamps on the back. Good conversation piece, too!

Less of a chance than you might think. A car on either side of me would have to get hit first as I’m not normally stopped all by myself….and because I am allowed to split to the front at a stop, I do.

My entire upper torso is covered by a reflective vest. Not like one you see on construction workers…but a Night Eye one from Richa (I think). The entire thing is 3M reflective.

@PJPR01 thanks for the pics…that’s exactly what I’m looking for.
