Hi,

Can anyone tell me what the front light here is called & where I can get one from.

The bike in the pic is an ER5.

My ER5 just has the boring round light.

Looks awful like one of those 'raptor' nose fairings.

The lights in them are cheap and nasty. In fact, the whole thing is. People usually fit them after a crash if they are skint.

You can get them from most of the mail order bike places for about £25.

Mark, that was just a standard powerbronze fairing - I sold it on ebay for a grand total of £23. It still keeps the same original light, it's jsut the surround, thats all.

Like that. (which is probably where you got it from). As I say, it was a powerbronze fairing. Smile

I was in Rochester today and i saw a CBR with a similar aftermarket Nose cone fitted...

My mate went "Ooh Look, He has streetfighter'd his CBR".

I was like, " Rolling Eyes

No, The owner has had a crash and cant afford the repairs!"

They look pants. They work pants. and they wont pass an MOT... Thumbs Down
