        Get a dark smoke visor for your helmet and mount them on your forehead. no need for a head light.

          My sentiments exactly.

          It's your bike though, so do what you wish. Just don't expect much help when "decorating" it from this crowd.

            The best place to set those is on fire. I suppose you could put them on your bike, unless you're going for a tasteful look.

                  Gosh you would think these old bastards dont go in for lighting effects..........

                  you could put them up high under the tank
                  but watch for any damage

                  also maybe near the airbox side of the carbs.

                  but this is madness they are horrid things and will make you look like a tool
                  perhaps a small screaming chicken decal for the tank as well?

                    How dare you cheese up one of these gorgeouse factory sex machines. Have you no respect for 1980's styling?!?!? These are gs's not xs650's or CB's.

                        You could use some #M style double sided tape to mount them under the tank on the sides. But mount them toward the back side to avoid as much of the head heat as you can. Im not a neon on a vehicle kinda guy so youll have to play around first to see.

                            Dang, I was going to go with some red and blue lights that would flash alternately, but forget that now. Gaaaah, had my hopes up too it would be the envy.

                            Zach, don't mind us, it's your bike. I have seen it done on Harleys before.

                            Might attract bugs, which is not the most desireable thing, but you know.

                              HEY, easy on the CBs now. They belong on a Yamaha disco Midnight Special.

                              Neon lights, really. Whats next, fringe? a little bell?
