Lower price + keeping the original appearance...  ???

Good price I've always had Austria down as expensive my wife & I paid 20 odd Euros for two bowls of soup with bread at a pavement cafe in Klagenfurt in 2014. Then again we could eat Pike-Perch up the road for the same price.lol

Found the headlight assy on Amazon though ...  ;)
I wouldn't tack some "ADV wannabe" lights on (any) bike...

My DTRL arrived today - this is my first fit as a suitable place to mount it I've used the bottom bolt that holds the indicator. / headlamp frame attaching a short bracket to get the angle right.

I have the option to hang it down from the swivel if I think it's too high - this way hides the bracket and looks okay to me. It consists of four 3W LED's so at 12 W not too bad.

The listing says 80LM/W so at 12W that’s 960 lumens.
About the same as a 60W H4 halogen.

Be careful where you point it!

On our old 4x4 I used the dimmer relay  that came with a kit so at night they dimmed automatically when you put main or dip beam on. I'm probably just using these for daytime safety.
