Here's a mini review of some Aux Light Brackets that Darren (Gas_Up_Lets_Go) asked me to take a look at.

The brackets are a strong and simple design, I'll take a simple design any day over a complex creation. They fix to the lower mounting point for the headlight assembly and extend forward following the line of the headlight assembly. Then out to each side to provide a horizontal mounting point to suspend your lights from at a point of your choice. You just need to drill a hole in each side at the point you want to fix your lights.

The brackets are very secure and fit easily and neatly, there's no wiring to move etc, just remove the lower fixing bolt, offer up the brackets and fit the longer bolt thats supplied with the brackets.

I fitted a set of PIAA 60mm lights (Thanks, Jenny!) to the brackets, these fit nealty into the recess between the headlight assembly and the indicator cowels.

In summary, the brackets are very solid and hold the lights so that they don't vibrate (any more that the rest of the bike that is!!). They position the lights in just the right place and provide a level platform to work from.

Here's a few photo's:
