Observation on Triangle of Light visibility

[Gone in 60]

Thanks, Chuckk. Loose, exposed wiring bugs me, so I didn't want to have anything running where it didn't absolutely need to go. Hence the switch located out of the way.
To be honest, if you don't have a switch on your setup, and don't see yourself ever needing to turn them off, I wouldn't bother. I've got your lights on my Bonneville, with a switch tucked behind the headlight mounting ear out of the way. I can reach it, but since the lights are single-beam (don't have a dimming option), I've never touched the switch.

Here's the setup on the Bonnie. I guess the LEDs are a bit closer to the headlight than I originally described.

Tidy Gin60!

When Chuckk showed his setup, I considered moving my lights off of the fender mount to the cooler. But, I decided to leave 'em where they are. If they get noticed more, great. Plus, they are close to the bike, and where I need to park it in my tight garage, if they stuck out past the overall frame of the bike, there would be a good chance that I'd bump into them as I shinny between the bike and the back bumper of my car.

On my Bonneville, I have pretty much the same lights Chuckk has, but with clear lenses.

On the CB, I have Rigid brand Ignite single LED lights that I pulled them off of my BMW before I sold it. I'm not about to pay several hundred of dollars for something that will do the job just as well for a lot less. The Ignite setup was about $150 total. On the BMW, I adapted mounts by using shower door brackets. On the CB, I just used some simple L brackets from Home Depot. They are set off of the fender mount screw with a spacer.

The lights are connected to the empty power supply plug in the headlight bucket. The wires from each light run along the brake hoses to the area behind the headlight. I mounted a small weatherproof switch to the lower triple clamp (yellow arrow). It's discreet and out of the way, but can still be reached. I leave them on all of the time anyway, so I don't need the switch up on the handlebar. The switch toggles between high, low, and off. So, when riding at night, I can give the switch a quick tap to dim the beams.

I suspect that aux lights on the Bonnie get lost in the spread from the headlight. The presentation I went to on this topic mentioned maximizing the spacing between the points.

That's pretty much the conclusion I came to, Empty.

Thinking about moving them down on the Bonnie. There are a few good natural mounting points that would work.

here are my foggies in action.. comparing them to my buddy's new BMW 1600's lighting...

Yea those are pretty visible

Bright indeed. The first bike appears to behave younger too.

thanks for the kind words G.O. .. I won't tell my buddy bill, on his BMW.. I am assuming, you are talking about riders ages on your comment.. I am 76 and bill is 70.. he is a pretty good rider though..
