I'm SURE this has been covered before, but please, before this thread is removed, just hear me out.....
Over the years, there have been thousands of auxiliary lights produced that are suitable for use on the 1150GS and other bikes, but searching the forum for them produces many, many results, and a huge number of the links are now dead: the products renamed, or otherwise removed from sale.
So - in the current time, summer 2020, can anyone recommend a decent, small* auxiliary light pairing? I don't even know at the moment which manufacturers are good (PIAA and HELLA are the only ones I'm aware of)
For reference, these will be used to augment FULL beam (ie, they will NOT be on all the time with dipped), and will be fitted to a Rockster rather than a GS or GSA (so additional things like mounting brackets are irrelevant, I have to make up something custom).
I currently have a Hella FF50 mounted to the underside of the front indicator using 3M VHB, and (frankly) it's shite. It's a fog light, so the beam pattern is all wrong and the mountings for it are awkward to utilise well on the Rockster.
* Previously I've had PIAA 1100Xs and they were great for filling in the gaps of the full-beam pattern. I'd buy them now - if I could find some....
