I rode an S3 today for the first time and loved it- I'm considering buying one, but I've got a serious issue with the "bug eye" headlamps. Just don't like 'em.

Is there an aftermarket option out there, to either convert to a single or cover the twins with some kind of fairing?

Thanks!

The lights are one of the best parts, but if you really want to change it, here is the LSL single mentioned...

I've also seen them with the twin projector lamps, but I don't recall who makes them. I think the bug eyes are one of the coolest parts of the S3, but of course that's JMHO.

Buy a BLACK Speed Triple and powder coat the lights.
