I'm pretty sure it won't work w/oem bars... the oem bars look like they hug the side fairing where the openings are too closely.
You could probably do a little grinding to make it fit but I think you'd have to grind at least 50% of the bar in that area and would make the mount too weak...rbernie said:That was my impression as well. Oh, well.
Can't you still use the lights by mounting on the factory bar up close to where these mounts would have the lights? You may have to use something like the PIAA light mounts that are made to fit the factory bars.rbernie said:That was my impression as well. Oh, well.
I've debated various bar mount solutions; most clamp on and don't seem particularly robust to me. And so I keep searching.Can't you still use the lights by mounting on the factory bar up close to where these mounts would have the lights?

What search criteria did you use on Ebay? I get the PIAA brackets, can't get your style to show.spam16v said:eBay light bar and legit Duallys
I would say no. The dualys are 3.5 inches across and there's about a .5 inch clearance on the left/radiator side and .75 inch clearance on the right side. You might be able to simply add an extension flat bar to get them out a little further or have a welder add some length to the bar but I think I'd stick with lower profile lights as you don't want to end up breaking the headlight structure trying to do too much with the bar.tc339 said:Trying to resurrect this thread a bit!
Does anyone know how much room there is on each side? I am trying to add some lights that have a 4.75 inch diameter. Would these fit? or would I need to modify them.
Thanks!
What bracket did Camtex use to mount his outer pair of PIAA's? Maybe those lights are smaller than I think.Mellow said:I would say no.

The 6" light bar is eBay, the Duallys are on a Denalli barDon in Lodi said:What search criteria did you use on Ebay? I get the PIAA brackets, can't get your style to show.
I know Clearwater lights offers a bracket for mounting lights at the fender mount bolts. I got a set of brackets from Jaxon (Tabasco) and mounted mine up on the handlebars.Wobbler said:Hey, if these are the 4" ones, they are really awesome. I plan to mount them on my bike. Has anyone heard about mounting them on the forks instead of the bike's body for better direction control?
Well, mine is a 2014 which is a Gen 2 so both are right.. lolSIXTEEN said:So does this Denali Mount work on the Gen 2 Ténérés? The "instructions" say from '11 - '14, but ZevRilla says '11 - '16. Would I just need to modify the trim cover on mine? Or just leave it off? Hmmmm.
