Well I hope I finally found lights that work for me. I got these lights http://www.mondomotos.com/product/MM15aux/ (http://www.mondomotos.com/product/MM15aux/) mounted the SNARF's mounts, and all I can say is WOW! I am very impressed with their sturdiness/ruggedness their weight is substantial too. These are pencil/flood lights. Up close their very much a flood light, in that they illuminate everything, but they also shoot a pencil beam the will roast a deer a mile down the road too. It is very important to make sure these a aimed correctly, out of oncoming traffic and not blinding car in front of you.
I have mine points down and a little to the sides and it's working very well. One of the pictures is the sun in front and you can see that they are clearly visible. I rode them to work at night and they fill in any and all dark voids in front of me, and push the shadows way back of the road shoulder.
Size compared to my glasses.

Sorry you weren't able to attend the National, it was a great time. How was your trip to Wetern NC and the mountain region? I can't wait to spend some serious riding time out there.

I to am just kidding. I do try to give him credit. Guy great idea and thank you for your blessing and permission.
