so i want to cut a whole in the race fairing and pop in a single projector style light for that cool look......

How do i do it and where do i get the bits was pointed to rhencullen who from what i can see stopped tradeing ?

could i use a light from somthing else anyone have any recomendations?

Mate,
The single headlight endurance fairings like mine use a plate the same size/shape as the standard headlight and the light is mounted on this, recessed into a hole cut in ..

Of course, if you'd done it properly and bought a Pferrer fairing, the headlight is all neatly hung on the fairing for you

ah that looks like the ticket what was the light from ?

Rhencullen moved from near the Triumph factory to Mallory Park and are deffo still trading.

Rob (who does the dyno work and fork rebuilds etc) is now called RJS Superbike - 01455 845611

Parry (or PJ) who does the shop is still called Rhencullen AFAIK - 01455 842224

Only shot I've got of the other side is this one...



..I prefer the headlight not on the fairing, but on the bike, so I can take the fairing off dead easy for maintenance/cleaning.

That light is a 5 3/5 inch cibie halogen unit which came with it.

I've broke the light recently so just bought another one, but gone for a smaller 4 inch halogen unit with a pilot light also. Cost about £40. Look on the usual sites: Busters Accessories, M and P, Demon Tweeks.

Dave.

this the sort of jobby ?

That's like I had, but that's only glass/reflector so need some way of mounting it. There's a popular one by Dominator which is 12 55/60w halogen and comes in a casing with mounting bracket.

Watch the measurements though, cos I think ones like Phuks are prolly only 3 inch diameter?

nice pic trixy

tis indeed a sweet pic

Looks cool!

But don't you need a main and dip beam plus a 'pilot' light, for MOT?

dont think so i know if you have them there they have to work though
