I know that MoCo states that the fog lights (68913-98B) will not fit the Mustache engine guard due to the step pads on the top; however, I am thinking on getting a pair and mount them on the lower angled part of the engine guard.

I know that they would be skewed with the light intersecting into a "V" toward the front wheel, but should they offer plenty of light since the output of the beams are horizontal.

Has anyone done this already or contemplated it?

I thought about it, but that idea didn't thrill me. I'm thinking of taking off the pads and mounting them on that part of the guard. Not sure I want to lose the pads yet though. Not really any other good spot though.

Hoist!

Take off the stock bar and mount a Lindby.  They look good too.

Thanks Don. That's not bad. A little pad with a place for the lights. Three models to choose from. http://www.lindbycustom.com/

Something to consider for sure.

I saw that exact set up recently on a RK. Yep, it looked a bit odd to me, but it was on, so the owner must have been good with it - and that is what matters, right?

i saw them on an 03 that had lower fairings. he had them on the vertical area where you would mount a highway peg

I've got Motolights on both my bikes and I wouldn't leave home without them. If you have ever seen a bike either tailing behind you of coming upon one with Motolights, you will not forget it. That is the first thing I added to Elvis, had them sitting in the box waiting when Elvis was delivered.
This is a bad picture but it shows the chrome caliper mounted Motolights. I'll get a better picture when I get home tonight and post.

That's a really good alternative. Nice job Mark. What'd you do to hide the wiring?

Hoist!

i believe they are zip tied to the brake lines

Well, it's hard to hide the HD Foglight wiring, unless you internally wire in the engine guards, which I never bothered to orry about. I can live with zip-tying to the BL's. Thanks for the info on this guys. Might just go that route myself.

I haven't checked the link yet for Motolights. Any tips on the type of light to use, or install secrets?

Hoist!
