Looks like it weighs a ton. I suppose you could with the proper supports/brackets.

Doesn't that put a lot of torque on the brakecylinder there, as it is not designed to hang such a load on it ??Zryder wrote:Yes it can , this is my mounting braket for a similar mounting hardware , and the leather tool bag hides the braket afterwords .

You are right about the mounting bolts not being designed for mounting a headlamp, but they are 6mm bolts andshould be easily capable of taking the load that a headlight will put on it.Annie's Boyfriend wrote:Doesn't that put a lot of torque on the brakecylinder there, as it is not designed to hang such a load on it ??Zryder wrote:Yes it can , this is my mounting braket for a similar mounting hardware , and the leather tool bag hides the braket afterwords .

They say WHY?, I say why not.
If God had intended motor cycles to be standard, he would'nt have given us the hacksaw.

SEE POST BY RETRO UNDER CONVERTING FARING TO STANDARD.
THE BOLTS (LONGER) RUN TROUGH THE BRAKE MANIFOLD INTO A SOLID MOUNT ON THE FORKS/FRAME.
YOU CAN ALSO ADD DRIVING LIGHTS TO THE SAME MOUNT.
