Looks better than the X2 light I used to have on there...

The model 60 lights are awesome!

Great product!

This install was a challenge!

Dr.Z wanted the fairing tight to the triples and low on the fender. The super tanker 6.6g Acerbis extends forward of the triples/forks.

Cut a scallop to fit the contour of the tank at full lock.


Plenty of steering


Tight to the triples


Looking Good, great light and functional wind protection.


Ready to travel and hit the trails

Sanjoh, I just sent you a PM
I am interested in this same set up in black.
It will be on a XR650R with a 6.3 gallon Acerbis tank also.
I like the look, wind protection and lights.
Thanks, Ken

I got a care package in the mail today.

I have some family business to take care of so it will have to sit in the garage for the next two weeks.

So for a xr650r without the giant tank, how would you recommend mounting?

Use the pins on the fender for the lower mount, strap with fork hardware for upper.

are you having any troubles with the model 60 overheating in the fairing when the bike is not moving or moving slowly?

looking at fitting the model 60 on a 690 rally to replace the standerd halogen high beam.
Your light should be a nice simple swap but I was a bit woried it would over heat behind the fairing and light protector.
