Fork-mount Driving Light Kit (For most bikes.)

 

Driving light kits are available for many specific bikes (see the below charts for your bike make and model). However, some may wish to mount the lights in a more custom configuration, or perhaps their specific bike model is not listed in the CruiserFX website. This web page offers additional sizing information of the lighting kits, that may allow you to mount the lights in a unique way.

Recent comments about our Complete Lighting Kit:

The installation went great!! This is by far the best set of instructions that I have had to follow in a long time. The light kit is such excellent quality and very easy to install. It took me about two hours but, I am a very meticulous person when it comes to my machines. Hats off to you and your crew for manufacturing such a great product. Please keep me informed of new products as they arrive.

Important Note for Shadow Aero owners: Because the Aero has a very wide front fender, the brackets must be mounted a minimum of 3 or 4 inches above the fender to avoid damaging the fender when the front suspension compresses.

FYI: All of the above models have 'Covered Forks'.

Important: On the Raider, the brackets are intended to mount around the top of lower fork case (as shown in the diagram below labeled "Uncovered Forks"), however the stock bike has black plastic covers in the locations where the brackets must mount. You must carefully remove these covers, which involves tapping it carefully up off the fork case and cutting through the plastic cover with a pair of tin snips or a knife. (This is the easiest way to remove the plastic covers. More detailed instructions of this procedure are provided with the Raider kit.)

For Universal Applications:

Measure the diameter around the fork where you would like to mount the brackets. If you aren't sure what your fork cover diameter is, and don't have a tool to measure the diameter, then here's an easy way to select the correct kit for your application: Take a sheet of paper, and cut a 1 inch long strip from the long side of the paper. Now take that strip of paper and wrap it around the fork cover. Make a mark on the paper where it overlaps itself. Now lay the strip of paper on a flat surface, and with a ruler measure the distance from the edge of the paper, to the mark you made. This distance is the circumference of your fork. Compare this number to the circumference range listed above for each type of kit.

B-200

   - Outside diameter of 2.37" (60mm) to 2.71" (69mm) or

Depending on the fork type (Covered, Uncovered or Inverted) of your stock motorcycle,

the brackets are designed to mount in one of three possible ways:

Covered Forks  Uncovered Forks Inverted Forks
For forks that have decorative chrome covers. the brackets can be placed anywhere on the covers. Brackets are designed to wrap around the top of the lower fork case. Brackets wrap around the fork case near the lower triple tree bracket.

Important Mounting Information: When deciding where to mount the lights on Covered or Inverted Forks, you must mount them high enough that they will not contact the fender when the suspension is compressed.

Why do you NEED auxiliary lights?  SAFETY is the number one reason.

As you approach an intersection from a distance, you are not very visible to the driver who is about to take a left turn onto the road you are coming down! However, with the CruiserFX Auxiliary Lighting kit, the driving lights mounted to your fork covers make you much more noticeable! (As the above unedited photos show.)

 

How well do they light the road at night?
This is a little difficult to properly illustrate, but the above photos give you an idea. The photo on the left is with only the headlight on. The photo on the right has the headlight on and the driving lights on. In reality, the lights are brighter than the photos indicate

 

As these photos show, function and beauty are the chief attributes of this one-of-a-kind kit. Using these chrome brackets with driving lights gives your cruiser an awesome look while significantly increasing your visibility to oblivious drivers. Our brackets utilize a unique rubber shock mount which will increase the life of the bulb in your bullet lights. Made from heavy-duty 20 gauge steel  makes them a very functional and beautiful addition to your chrome plated fork covers.

The headlight kit comes with a 3-piece harness. The front piece is covered with a chrome wire cover (plastic). All the wiring harness cables are encased in a thick vinyl spiral cable cover that protects the wires from getting damaged.

The lighting kit comes with a 12 volt relay and replaceable fuse. They have a completely independent power source from the battery. The included wiring harness runs from the battery all the way to the driving lights.

We include a 14 page step-by-step installation manual with many photos. Installation should take about 90 minutes. Our experiences with this kit have shown that anyone (who is a least a little bit "mechanically inclined") will be able to use the included step-by-step manual to install these lights.

The included rocker switch can be mounted on any flat surface near the headlight. (Or you can wire the driving lights without a separate switch.)

The driving light housings are made from chrome-plated steel with an outside diameter of 4", and a depth of 3". The lights have glass lenses which focus the beam into a tight "spot light" pattern. These use industry standard 55 watt, type H3 halogen bulbs. All mounting screw heads are covered with chrome caps for a "clean" look.

 

The Complete Lighting Kit comes with everything you will need.

You only supply some basic tools. (The installation manual provides a list of the tools you will need.)

 

Depending on your particular bike model, the brackets are be installed anywhere along the fork covers (covered forks), or at the top of the lower fork housing (uncovered forks).

horizontal rule

If you wish to use your own driving lights and harness, you may purchase the brackets separately.

 

 

If you buy the brackets only, they will work with any lights that have a 5/16"  or 3/8" mounting stud that is at least 1.25" long.

 

 

Read the bracket installation instructions for more information.)
