I am mounting a set of Hella FF 50's on the oil cooler just under the fairing.

It appears the bottom plate of the cooler is actually a quite stout frame and I believe it will be strong enough to carry the weight of a pair of lights.

I am overlaying the bottom plate with a piece of 1/4" aluminum that has light mounting studs threaded into it, the plate will be attached using adhesive technology (epoxy) . The frame looked good enough that I was going to fasten the plate directly to it using very short steel tapping screws but I chickened out..I think it would have worked though.

With the lights in place I will have about 5" of front suspension travel before the fender hits the lights..should be more than enough unless I decide to go for a jaunt around a MX track.

Has anyone done this..any stories good or bad?
