Now i personaly think this looks really good, im a fan of thundercats but ill admit that the headlights do look a little "stone age"

I think hes just put ducati lights in it and filled the hole, looks very neat and tidy Thumbs Up


what do you think?

Projector beam head lights were around way before Ducati Smile.

Not impressed in this case, prefer it to look more 'enduro' (ideally because it is for endurance racing Smile ).

As mentioned, these are not 'ducati' lights, just standard projetor beams that Ducati also ues.

Basically, get a race fairing, make a hole and a bracket to hold your lights of choice Smile.

I like it. The Thundercat is a good looking bike anyway and that new front does it no harm.
As long as the lights actually work why not.

I'm not sure why someone would want to do that other than to replace a crash damaged original parts.

It looks odd and i can't make my mind up if i like it or not, i'd have to see it in the flesh i think

I'm not really a big fan of the Thundecat, though I think that the fairing/lights looks pretty good on it. Have to look at it close up to see if it's a tidy job, but it's a big Thumbs Up from me Very Happy

If you'd ever tried riding a Thundercat in the dark you would understand why he has changed the light!

Laughing Absolutely! But then that probably cost well into 3 figures, whereas changing the 45W headlight for a 105W one only cost me £6.90. Razz
