acerbis question again.

Does any1 have an acerbis headlight on their 05/06 636? I got vortex flipped clip-ons on top and it's looking like I'll have to move everything to get it to fit.
Just wondering if any1 has any tips?

I heard someone mention building brackets to extend the location of the light, I would really like to use the rubber straps it comes with.

thanks

Re: acerbis question again.

I don't understand how it could be in the way.
maybe raise it or lower it on the forks a bit

Re: acerbis question again.

K.. I fucked w/it. I got the upper brackets to mount up but I will have to build extensions for the lower brackets to keep the lights from hitting the frame. I also had to move the front brake line and both reserviors. I'll post some pics after I finish.

The cyclops looks kinda tiny.

Re: acerbis question again.

What he is saying is on the 636 the ram air duct sticks out past the forks.

on the 636 it's part of the frame..

I'm just waiting for my boy to drop of some of my tools I loaned him. I'm just going to use scrap i got laying around the house to make some 3'' extensions for the bottom.

Hopfully the metal holes won't cut the acerbis rubber straps?
