I was under the impression that was called a 'light bar'?

The light bar you think about is sold by Honda, HB is different, do a quick search on google and you'll see the differences.

I have H&B Engine guard and it works fine. I've dropped my bike twice and there's no scratch on the engine. You can see the videos on my youtube channel.

I see the difference now. W/O knowing, I guess first glance they looked the same to me.

Glad to hear they're working for you guys!

I agree with ricksride. Looks like it doubles as an engine guard AND a light bar. Looks like you could clamp lights to the top portion under the beak.

Absolutely! You have several locations where lights can be attached to. The top portion of the engine guards would seem like the best fit, though in the picture shown above, it looks like Hepco & Becker installed their Blue Ion Flooter lights to the vertical section of the bars.

I want lights low and figure they have to go on the forks which means they will take a beating. Maybe a lowering bracket will make them low enough..........but then they won't steer into the corner which is the problem now.....arghh.

They look good to me. And I always thought the "light" vs "engine" bars was a pretty vague designation for things that did the same thing mostly.

How low do you want your aux. lights? These guards would allow you to mount as low as...well here:

Yea, that is what I was looking at.
If I can find the right lights that shine wide and "around" the corners then maybe I don't need them on the forks. ???
I have not searched threads thoroughly for this specifically yet.
