Cobra Light Bar
I would like to get one of these light bars. I was wondering if you have one when you bought it did it come with the smaller lights. I know the original turn signals get reused.

Well when I said smaller lights I meant smaller than the headlights not necessarily a smaller option of lights. What I wanted to know if the light bar comes with the lights or do you have to buy those extra.

they all come with lights, most you have to use your own turn signals on. Kuryakyn has one that uses LEDs or something like that and the lights are about half the size of standard light bar lights.

I will have to look at those too. I am not sure of the headlight at night on this bike. I haven't been home to ride it since I bought it. My last bike I had to ride on high beam all the time at night. I tried low and at 35 mph I was out riding my light. I would completely miss a turnoff. I just want to throw out plenty of light.

from what I understand sabres are the same. I haven't had mine out of the garage since I bought it, I've pretty much redone everything as of today. Now it's plate and insurance time. I'm still trying to make my mind up on a light bar, never needed it before but don't do much riding outside of town after dark. On a sabre I think it would look better than on other bikes.
this first one is what I'd lean towards but I'd also be afraid the driving light would wash out the turn signal http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/515/Driving-Light-Bar here's the other kury http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/652...h-Turn-Signals Last edited by oblivion_twister; 04-24-2012 at 10:33 PM. |

They don't have the bar for the 99 Shadow VT1100C2 ACE but they do have these.
 I kind of like these too.

I have the Cobra and I love it for the night riding and really heps light up the road better than the headlight, I picked up a MS fats windshield with the with quick release and found out I need to move the light bar to get it to sit where it's supposed to, Not sure but I think the quick releast moves it out a lottle because my bike came with the MS mounts on the bike but Not the quick release ones so it DID have a shield on it at one time, I might make one at work (I'm a machinist) But think I might just buy one for $30 and have it chrome, Fairly cheap so not really worth the time to make.

Looks like I will need that for the bar since I already have the MS windshield.
