Harley Fatbob headlights on a R3

[Trirocket3]

Yeh they are one piece , easy fix to get them both burning at once. I still like the idea of a V-Rod light and fairing. Bloke in NZ was doing it , don't know if he got it done or not.

Here is my bike with twin V-rod headlights, this pic is from my album which has tomcats comment "Gota be the ugliest Rocket in captivity"

I had an 08 FatBob. Really liked that bike, until the engine started sounding like it had ball bearings bouncing around in it. It was still within the factory 2 year warrenty. Had it in the dealer shop for over a month and dealer told me the engine needed replaced. They called HD cooperate, who refused to replace it, since the dealer couldn't prove the noise was causing any problems. The HD dealer told me take it home, bring it back in a month and they would "create a problem" that would require the engine to be replaced under warrenty by HD cooperate. I declined, just because HD didn't have any integrity didn't mean I didn't. The dealer, thankfully, bought it back from me, but of course I still took a beating. HD and I parted ways, permanently.

A lot of people complain about Triumph backing their products but one of my good friends (who has rode HD his whole life) bought an 09 E Glide Classic. It always pulled hard to the right. After he got tired of being jerked around by HD, he took the front end apart and found that when the machined the steering neck for the bearings, it looks like they got it in the fixture crooked. Lots of meat on one side, paper thin on the other. He sued them and I believe the case still has not settled.

I see the chin spoiler is from that german/austrian accessorie dealer no longer in business ..too bad he had some neat stuff. crash bars could be his design too

The only downside I can see to this mod is that you may have to prepare yourself to lose significant HP ......... But on a serious note I don't see how you could go wrong with this mod - will look forward to seeing some pics.

V-Rod headlights look like they were designed by Salvador Dali.

Yes & yes well spotted

Yes & yes well spotted

just looking again are the wheels carbon from blackstone ...if so you 've got some really special doughnuts there
may I suggest you look into the best brakes ever designed to grace those doughnuts , I am referring to beringer brakes including their rotors naturally, if Hombre uses them rest assured he only use the very best period. and since you 've got oodles of power from the supercharger you need oodles of stopping power.

it is only money after all..

Yes BST carbons
400hp go power
Pretech 6 pot calipers front & rear stopping power
I can get them for £190 each inc pads
so MUCH better deal than overpriced beringers
