The Mercenary Monster

about some close ups of the headligt /mounting ?
pretty please

just noticed this... I can take some pics later tonight at home but all I did was bend up some joist strapping brackets, trimmed up the ends with aviation shears (tin snips) and then smoothed out the cut edges with a bit of sandpaper.  Black rattle canned them after a layer or two of primer and voila!  It was pretty simple once I got the bends correct for the top brackets.  2 top/ 2 bottom, some rubber grommet thingies, some washers, some nut/bolts.  Holds on like a rock and doesn't jiggle at all.

Hey BW & Crex both ur rides r way Kool love the headlight BW really like theindustrial look of your bike

finally pulled this one off myself.  credit brownwhale with the idea.  made my own brackets and may fab up a cowl sometime in the future.  this headlight is sooooo much brighter than the stock headlight and was pretty much a straight across wiring job, although I took the time to invent a new solderless method of connecting the wires as I couldn't find my flux and was too lazy to solder mostly because I suck at it.

 

c-rex, I LOVE IT!!!

You mean the new one? It comes from the Ducati factory in Modena. Do you have the same? Pics please!   

I must say, the headlight c-rex has looks great as well!

sorry for delay on the bracket pix.  smashed my finger while building a bench and typing has been a "touchy" subject to say the least. 

Anyhow- here's a picture reduced for format size.  PM me if you want more angles, closer, wutevah....

I don't know how I missed this thread.  I really like the look of that Superduke headlight.  I'm on my way back stateside to spend a couple weeks at home and plan to have my MT-01 headlight installed this week.  I'll post some pix as soon as I get a chance.

You`ll loose over 5 pounds and it can be done, I`ve dunnit.
W an alu sprocket & wavy disc, I've lost 2,5 kg.

Wiring schema before I lose the notes I made:

Ducati  -->  KTM
Black  -->  Brown
Yellow  -->  White
White  -->  Green
Yellow/Black  -->  Blue

I found this really helpful, thanks for posting.  Also, when I got my Superduke light it was wired up with a 6 pin Molex terminal housing.  I ordered new parts from Allied Electronics.  It's the .093 size, not .062.  Below is a link to the parts page where the housings and clips part numbers can be found should anyone want to go the route I have.
