Has anyone tried mounting these on a motorcycle? We have a larger sport cruiser and a smaller sport bike, and higher visibility is always good.

Sounds like a great idea. All you need is a ground and a power source, the lights activate by reading a drop in voltage when the ignition is turned on.

I don't see why not, but not my first choice. They are very bright, don't use much power, and awesome for off-road vehicles...but it's not a precise beam like a driving light. They are a little big for most motorcycles, I would look into a small projector style light if it were for my own bike.

they can actually I have used them in my motorcycle without fairings I'm distrust you sir seems to be holding up really well, I have taken rides when the bike would get all wet and these things seem to hold up just fine.

they are bright enough to blind oncoming traffic, a lot would depend on how you have them aimed. i installed mine in a winch bumper, it is hard to tell if it the lights themselves or if it is the bumper causing issues with the light pattern, but I am unimpressed with these lights. I purchased a set of 5 inch KC fogs for the other mounts in the bumper and they work very nicely.

Actually, the way they mount, the bolts etc. are already on your bike....they mostly mount using the same bolts that hold the wheels on...I am VERY fond of mine.They went on pretty easy, straight forward...and they made my 150.00 beach cruiser look like something really classy! Oh, by the way...the company that sells them were great to work with...I even got a rear view mirror from them after I saw the quality of the fenders...just take your time putting them on; and trust me, you won't be dis-appointed....Hope that helps! :-)

They are very small. They look OK on a sportster. But think they may be too small for your bike. Good luck.

These work very well on mountain bikes. They would be very difficult / impossible to mount on a road bike. SKS Raceblades work very well for road bikes.

They mount with 3M adhesive tape that is part of the strip. They will mount where ever you can easily reach. Mine are mounted around the outside of the headlights.

I have them on my DRZ supermoto bike. They are like sunlight. Adjustment is important to keep from blinding oncoming drivers. The street signs light up great with them. One of mine just went a little dimmer than the other. I think there is something loose inside, have not had the time to check it out yet.

I did the same thing as alot of the other buyers I screwed them into the supports.They look and work well.just sit in the cart and figure out at what height you get the best visibility, mark and mount them .I used gal vanized self tapping screws,which means there was no drilling involved as the screw cuts right into the tubular frame.

O rings have been secure enough for me, at least for the two months I have been using the mount. I'd suggest getting a couple of spares for each bike . . . just in case. How will extended periods of sun and rain affect them? As I said, just in case.

Depends on the shape (curve) and thickness of the handlebars on the cruiser. It'd be a waste of money and not of much use imo. I have a cruiser, but put these on my hybrid/road. For what I wanted, they're great.

yes they work great. I use them when I ride my motorcycle and they are tinted along with uv protection which makes everything clear and my eyes don't hurt even after being on the highway in the sun all day. Are they safe around a bright welding light no they don't take the place of welding shield but they work for daylight.

Sadly, I sold my bike about a month before I bought these, so I haven't tested them in that environment. :^( However, I think these would work fine, plus these are great for any loud environment where you still need to hear people talk. Also, these would be good if you use a device like ScalaRider or Chatterbox. Earasers do have another product called "Peace and Quiet" that seem to block more sound and may be better for highway speeds on a motorcycle, though.

The LED version as far as I know do not come with them and even if you did find some laying around or scavenge the rubber off the non lighted ones, the plastic housing is slightly different around the holes. They wouldnt fit. best bet would be to pick up a set of O-rings and use them as a makeshift anti-vibration mount as the rubber on these isn't much to write home about anyways. They kinda distort when torquing them down so it ends up looking weird and broken-ish.

These should work just as well on a 4 wheeler as they do on my motorcycle. The lights are bright and adhesive backing very strong if you clean the area with alcohol. The connection between the battery and the switch for turning the lights on and off is a bit short. You may need to extend that wiring a bit depending on where you want to mount the switch. Good product...Good luck... j.d.

They worked good on the motorcycle. When your not moving they fogUp a little bit. I'd probably keep looking for actual snowboarding goggles.
