Decided to continue to "Go My Own Way", as I have never liked the Triumph Foglights/set-up for the Thunderbird.







Luckily, I do have a mate who made me 2 very nice 3mm Stainless Steel Brackets to mount them on.

Can we have a side angled photo please

I like the 'dark' look of these! Not so 'BAMM...THERE I AM' appearance.
Nice job.

Looks better than the T'bird light bar. Is the light out put very good ? And when you post photos try and show the custom made brackets.

Here you go, bracket angled so that lights remain parallel with headlight and indicators:









This is best quality shot I can get with the software I use to reduce the size of the picture for posting here.

I like them, I like the dark lens look and they appear to be less obtrusive than the Tbird ones, ... very nice job.

PS and indicators stay where they should as well

That is definitely a different way to foglight the 'bird. I would be curious as to how a side by side comparison would look like.

I had those on my Rocket and I don't remember how much they put out...there was a difference but I would think the bigger Thunderbird foglights would light up the area better. Also a lot of riders leave those lights on for visibility which is what I do as the only other choice is doing the headlight modulator set up which irritates the heck out of me when I see them coming head on.
