Just wondering if something like this exist? I know the dual headlights are kinda Triumph's trademark for their hooligan bikes, and I love how they look. I've been wondering what a single headlight might look like?

THIS is a speed triple but I'm sure you could do it on a speed four with minimal effort.

IMHO The twin lights and air intake snorkles are examples of what makes our bikes unique and different to the rest of the crowd.
They are the things that make people take a second look and say "what the feck is that?" some say it in a positive way and others in a negative way but one things for sure - once they know they'll never forget it's a Speed Four :-D

Thing is: I've always loved the twin headlight look on the S4. That was the first thing that caught my eye. But I've never been happy with their placement. I think they're too low and too far out in front. The stalk that they're mounted to is the culprit. I don't know...I like to tinker on the bike. This is just one of the options I was exploring.

Thanks for the input,

- John

You guys should see the projector beams that Andrew put on his S4. It is really evil looking!

evil:

btw... if anyone's interested, I finished the tt600 fairing conversion today.
I had to make the top lower fairing mounts from scratch. does anyone know where to get those lens covers? I'm thinking of getting one to fill in the empty space in the front.
