How To - Helmet Headlight Mod (streetfighter or stunter)

[FastJetta97]

start off with this isn't on a katana but the principles go with any bike....
mostly i kinda just wanna show off my work ( if you dont like it and its not your taste's feel free to say whatever you feel... i dont really care cause i like it)

This is the bike before the mod....





Started off with one of my old helmets i had laying around.... ripped out all the guts.... (helmets aren't easy to tear apart.... its like they want em to protect something....)







then i skipped pics of the boring part....
-hold it to the bike....
-mark the spots it hits...
-cut some more off....
-REPEAT ABOUT 50 TIMES.....

Get to something such as this..... (mounting the gauges was annoying but thats about the best i could come up with)







then had to deal with mounting some lights.....
-piece of flat steel across with two bolts holding each side.... then a bolt holding each light to the flat steel....







give an awesome glow at night from the rings...



bright as hell at night....



Costs:
Helmet - Prolly could have sold it for maybe 50 bucks
Fog Lights - 35 bucks from pepboys....
Hardware - what i had laying around the garage so free....

NOTES:
this is my stunt bike.... so i didn't remove plastics to do this....
had an extra helmet.... would not tear up a new nice helmet for this....
did use some welding.... can easily be done without welding though....

Mate, that's sick looking. Nice one.

[SilentTJ]

that's pretty wild. idk if i'd want that as my main bike, but as a second bike for fun, that'd be awesome. definitely turn some heads with that one

Very cool!!
Do a profile shot. I'd like to see what it looks like from the side with the rest of the lines of the bike.

[FASHER]

WOW!!! Very creative!!

[FastJetta97]

took some better pics today....

its kinda small compared to the bike.... doens't look perfect but i suppose the little mini-lights stunters put on are tiny too....

[Rok_Stars_Bars]

WOW that is sick... This is the first streetfighter, I eva seen myself riding. That is nice

[zuma]

I dig that. Have you thought about installing turn indicators in the matching holes in the frame on either side of the handle bars? Just a thought.

[FastJetta97]

prolly would do that... but its a stunt bike.... so i dont really need em'.... good idea though...

[Kreylyn]

That is pretty slick. Nice touch on the stunter.

[FastJetta97]

Ah gotcha, and no mine doesn't have them as the ram air is feed centrally through the steering head straight to my airbox. Your 6 is an older carburated model right (can tell by the gauges)? That would account for the difference.
