Default Opinion on Auxiliary lights...

Do you guys think the lights do a disservice to the KLX community or can they stay on? I had to fab a bracket in order to get them on the bike. I have not wired them up yet. I am 50/50 on whether I like them on there.

What are they? How much power do they draw? don't look too bad, but then again I have 8 blinkers on my bike.

If you're riding much in the dark, I would say go for it.

If you're not riding in the dark much, then it's just extra weight sitting high up on your forks.

Jethro was my childhood hero! Remember when he would eat an entire box of Corn Flakes in a giant mixing bowl? Classic!

Thats the kind of thing I want to do on my KLX. And wire one light into the high beam and the other for the low beam. Or both together if they have the lo/hi option. But I also want them to be in HID and compact. No gaint 6" lens.

I always thought night-ridng through the local forests would be pretty damn cool.. I've thought about aux lighting but that's about where it ended.. hahaa

Yours looks good, might not be too crash worthy, but should work decent if they're good lights. Let us know how it works out.
