I fitted these on my RS and just fitted two 10mm spacers under the horn bracket, sorts the problem.

I just swapped out the original allen bolts for longer 35mm items.
If i remember correctly Triumph do actually make a shorter version of the fork protector, i believe for faired models but i chose to go with the longer variant for maximum protection.

Many thanks for the pics.

Yes, I thought they had shorter ones for the faired models too and I had ordered these for my Daytona from the Daytone parts fiche but they are too long for that aswell?

I used these:

But they only can be mounted in combination with their fork stabilizer (which I had to use due to my front fender modification):
https://shop.montagestaender.de/motorrad...hwarz.html

An it looks like this when mounted:

That looks very well Ulljanrich, suits the bike nicely.

Racy looking headlamp you have there. What make is it?

It's this:
https://motodemic.com/shop/jw-speaker-7-...-adaptive/

The brackets come with the Dart Flyscreen for the 2017+ CB1100 Models. These brackets need to be longer in order to get the flyscreen fitted. So Dart supplies their own (longer) brackets, which are of superb quality and at least as good as the originals. It looks like laser-cut stainless steel. Very strong quality.

To fit the JW Speaker unit, a new and sufficiently large headlight bucket was needed. When I started this modification in around 09/2019, Motodemic still offered the steel made black bucket in 7" size, and I ordered it. It could be of Triumph origin, but I cannot guarantee that. Heavy duty quality bucket, that is for sure. Looks 100% like those on Triumph bikes...

However, right now, in their Motodemic webshop I can find 5 3/4" Buckets only.

I have described the mod in this forum earlier. Wire-wise it was a medium headache at least, as Honda uses a very "unusual" 8-pin-plug for their LED headlight. That had to be figured out and happened to work only with the help of special adapters solution eventually. For me as a complete non-electric a real adventure and I had to learn and understand a lot. For those who are familiar eit elctricity, it should be easy, or at least easier.

So far, the headlight-mod has proven very, very good and dependable. Very nice bright light indeed, on both wet and dry roads. It really puts its lumens on the road, yet not blinding the uncoming traffic. I really like it so much, even after 18 months of using it. Nightrides have become so much safer. Every ride, a real "high-light"

And the look - I like it myself, too.

That is a serious headlight offering.

I added these to my bike to stick with the carbon fiber look of the rest of the items I added. I think they look great and do the job. I did have to shorten the screw so that they would not harm the fork tubes when installed.
