Title: M696 Headlight Suggestions
Post by: Binary on November 05, 2008, 06:22:03 AM
I'm thinking about swapping out the stock M696 headlight with a more aggressive headlight. Any suggestions?
I'm digging the Streetfighter headlight and wonder if I can swap that on next year once its available.

Wow, I think that's really cool. I'd love to see what it looks like on the 696  [thumbsup]

I ordered the CoolIT paint for my cans and plan on painting the headlight at the time as well. If that doesn't do well for me... I'll start hunting for more options.

That think kinda reminds me of the headlight on the Streetfighter.  Or, dare I say Gladius. [puke]

I really dig the dual streetfighter headlight setup.  If anyone has any photoshop skills it would be pretty cool to see a 696 with those dual headlights.

I like the simple round headlight of the 695 and would rather go with that one if possible.

neither are any of the aftermarket LED taillights, blinkers  or headlights (that i know of)

proceed at your own risk (of tickets)
