My new NCX is the first bike that I have owned that had a beak or a fairing mounted headlight. Let me also add that there has been 37 year gap away from motorcycles that is also contributing to an issue that I am having when driving at night. I've always had a headlight that would point in the direction that I intended to go to instead of staying straight ahead. Not having this mostly bothers me when I'm making a hard turn in a dark area. But even then, I've been taught to look where I want to go and the bike will follow you, so when where I want to go in a curve is dark it is a concern.
I'm not seeing a way to do this from looking a photos of auxiliary lights here in the forum. The only way that I can imagine would be to clamp lights to the lower front fork but then there is the problem of what to do with the slack in the wiring when the forks compress.
I suppose that a wider angle flood light mounted rigidly is the only solution but I would like to run this light(s) even in a dim light mode since the second purpose of the aux light is to increase my visibility to oncoming traffic and vehicles at intersections. I envy the Harley guys that look like UFOs coming down the highway and really appreciate how they help me to see them coming.
