I'm just curious, is Europe the only place that you can get the twin 4" chrome headlights? I have searched and searched, and the only place in the US that I have found that carry them is streetfighter-usa.com. However, they want 219.99 plus 12.00 shipping. That's just to far out of my budget for a couple of lights. Anybody else have any ideas?

Try the good folks at Hella. The only problem will be the mounting brackets to fit them to a bike instead of a car.

Wild Hair has them, too - but theirs are even more $$. There are others in the US, but I don't think you'll find a kit cheaper than the one you found. The other option is to source your own lights and fab your own brackets and wire them up yourself. You can even make a bracket that fits the fairing bracket on the steering yoke and have non-turning dual lights like the Speed Triple.

There's nothing wrong with ordering from Europe. I've order some stuff from the UK & Germany with no real troubles. The German order was a little more difficult since I don't speak German and they didn't admit to English... but they (Thunderbike) have since come up with an English site.

Haha before reading what you'd put I was about to ask "what's that Buell doing in with the Bandit gang?" I think the smaller twin headlights look ok on Bandits, single headlights look good on Bandits, but the big twin headlights should stay on Speed Triples! God I love Speed Triples

I am in the middle of installing two 5 3/4 halogen headlights that mount to the fairing stay boss. coming together nicely, every thing is fitted and mounted, just a couple tweeks and either paint, powdercoat or polish the brackets. e
