[QUOTE="Warchild, post: 501017, member: 4"] The Solteks will not fit ANY common aux light bracket for the FJR... not Gerald's, not Top Gun brackets, etc. It's not just the fact the Solteks are simply too damn heavy for practical motorcycle application, it's the fact that they have a HUGE-ASS housing which strikes the bodywork well before you can fit the lamp to the mount. The Top Gun bracket [I]might[/I] handle the ginormous weight, but we will never know because the Soltek housing is just too large to mount to them. :blink: You need to get the Skyway brackets, or you are hosed. There is no other bracket for this lamp, and this is yet another reason why IMO they are sub-optimal for sport-touring applications. The housing is simply too large. They are too heavy. The light output is so intense, it is virtually unusable unless you are truly alone out in the desert or otherwise away from any prevailing traffic (coming or going). Good luck getting these Skyway brackets for your Gen I. My suspicion is that you are not mounting these lamps anytime soon. Hope I'm wrong.... but I don't think I am.... :unsure: [/QUOTE]
