Being back to work and back to working nights. 2 of the 3 bikes have auxiliary lights, Casper does not. With the 95 being the touring/long distance bike. I decided to move the existing auxiliary lights over to Casper. Instead of getting another budget BMW style lights. I decided to go a bit high end with a set of Denali DR1 2.0 lights. It will be a few more days before I am able to get them out in the dark. 1st impressions are WOW.

Well chosen Fred, Denali, along with Clearwater and one other brand I can't think of have long been considered by the serious adventure bike and off road riders to be the best in the business. If your first impressions are WOW, wait until you find some serious dark to ride through, especially when it comes to corners. I expect, like me, you'll find it difficult to adequately describe how brilliant good auxiliary lights are (intended).

How have you mounted them?
