Do you think the bobber would look cool with a visor, and can I just order a 7" one of ebay? Or, is it another size?
I am metric.

 

[muensterDeath]

It might. I thought the Royal Enfeild I was riding would look bad with one, but actually looked okay. Not sure what size would be needed.

The one in the picks was a generic one.

Maybe a Dart Flyscreen for a New T120 might fit?

I had National Cycle Flyscreen on my Indian Scout, that should fit also to Bobber (technically), but I am not sure if I liked the look with a screen.

I think the visors look really weird on these but if it'll make life easier, definitely go with it lol

 

[Anders Kanten]

Ahaha!

I do not want a front screen. I want something like this:

 

[muensterDeath]

Yes!! I am looking for one of those as well. Will let you know what I find.

 

[muensterDeath]

I would like to find a brass one.

 

[muensterDeath]

This is the one I want. But apparently sold out.

I think he Bobber headlight is like 5" or 5 3/4". I am not sure though.

 

[muensterDeath]

Anyone on the forums know the size of our headlight?

Would it be measured at the glass or the housing?

I would think because it sits on the glass then the bezel on top it would be the glass?

 

[Forjox]

Typical USA headlights come in 5-3/4" and 7"

I don't know how to meassure either. If it is inner or outer diameter?

Also inches is not my preffered way of meassuring anything.

I want a black one. Might spray paint a silver one from ebay black.

I just ordered this one...

5-3/4? Headlight Visor | 3100280 | J&P Cycles

I'll let you know how it turns....and yes, painting may be in order. I couldn't fine any other brass ones...and not to keen on "chrome" for this.

 

[Lure]

How do they mount??

 

[muensterDeath]

you take off the bezel/head light rim (small screw at the bottom) that is at the front of the headlight. The visor rests on top of the glass, put the bezel/headlight rim over it to sandwich between the light and the rim, then tighten the screw on the bottom.

I'm not 100% sure that this will fit well or not, it's universal, but for less than $20 shipped, figured I'd give it a shot.

 

[Anders Kanten]

I ordered one of ebay too, so lets see how it fits.

 

[muensterDeath]

Find a black one?

 

[Anders Kanten]

Nope. I just have to attack it with primer and spray paint I guess.

I do got "mercury black" on spray cans. That is the outboards. Nice black color. Think I will try that.

 

[muensterDeath]

Installed. Not sure how much I like it. Would prob like a more rounded brim better.

 

[Anders Kanten]

I think it looks great!
