This bike deserves to be the bike of the moment!  Has it been there yet?  Did I miss it?  I don't remember coming back to look at a bike so many times as this one.  Just beautiful brownwhale!

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.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

keep your eyes on eBay for the SuperDuke headlight, maybe you'll have better luck than me.  I couldn't wait longer than the several months I looked so broke down and bought one from the dealer at something like $230 (OUUUCH!).  It really is much, much brighter than the Ducati light though.  I thought I had got the wiring crossed on the low beam/high beam until I switched to high and shazaaam!  I was seeing spots for a few moments.  :)
