Looking to source some light kits similar to what Banditmania.co.uk offers.  Talking about the twin lamp kits... ~4" ea.  I've emailed them but thought I'd ask you guys too.

Due to a recent mishap, (bike was stolen and found wrecked in the neighborhood...) it's time to finally take the fairing off.

Nope... and no suspects.

Not sure what's actually going to happen with the bike.  Lots of parts with minor damage... but still damaged especially for an 8 year old bike that never even touched the pavement.

I've heard of people having good luck with these.  I love the look.

I bought my lights at www.streetfighterstore.com

They are in Great Britain, it took less than a week to receive them, and total price including shipping was $112.00!!  I have seen bikes with the ones from ebay and these are much nicer looking.  Also they come with the H4 bulbs, and also have a small running light inside of each lamp.  You won't be dissapointed.

Those are nice, but IMO, too small.  I may just hold out to see what Banditmania has to say.  That, or go with a holeshot style 6" head lamp...

Which is just a SV650 unit... which is similar to, if not the same as, the one on the B12N.

Ordered a kit today.... $40 for the brackets and headlight.  Should have it this week, then I'll show pictures.  

Thinking maybe I should be paying more... we'll see.

CHEVSUZ12,
Did your lights from the Streetfighter store come with brackets or did you purchase seperate?  They are bad ass and exactly what I am looking for.

Thanks for the compliments on the brackets!   I made them myself.  

The streetfighter store does have some but they are around $300  .  Holeshot has some nice ones as well, I got pics of both of them and designed my own using the features I liked from each of them.

I recieved my headlights from the streetfighter store today.  How was the installation?  What did you do with the huge mess of wiring tucked inside the stock headlight?

Pretty simple installation, as for the wires, I mounted the lights kinda high in order to conceal some of the other wiring, and zip-tied the wires in as small of a bundle as I could get them in and tied them to the factory wires.  About 90% of them is concealed.  You will be amazed at the light output of these babies!

At your local Buell dealer. Here's a shot of a 1G B6 with the lights off a Buell Lightning:
