Electronics » Denali fender mounts for D2 lights

Anyone using these fender mounts with lights? I've got the MaMo bars to mount them, but now thinking putting these smaller, lighter lights on a fender mount and buying another pair of lights for the MaMo light bars.

Pros, cons if you've tired or are using them before I pull the trigger on the fender mounting kit?

I mounted a pair to my buddy's R1200R. Because of the design, they will want to rotate. I used a stainless external tooth star washer between the tube and fender. I know he's put 1000's of miles on it since I installed them, when we met up over the summer, I checked them out and they appear to have stayed aligned just fine.

Those washers didn't scratch the paint on the fender? Hmm, that's a good heads up, I think on this.

Yes, they dig into the plastic a bit, which is what kept the whole thing from rotating. As I recall they fit into a recess and replaced an existing screw / bolt that secured part of the fender to a boss on the fork. Meaning that you couldn't see them when installed and you wouldn't likely see the scratches if you simply took the light off and put the screw back.

I'm not sure what lights those are, but D2 or those on fender I think would be good, especially in Amber for daytime visibility. Agree you could potentially source slightly larger lights on MaMo bars to provide more light.

I am planning on attempting to get my old Clearwater Krista’s on the Mamo bars. The bars just arrived today so I’m going to eye it up before ordering required CW mounting hardware.

I really need to be on here more often.

I have installed several sets of fender mounts combined with D2 lights and it's a great combination. I use a spring washer under the bolt head to provide anti-vibration and doesn't damage the paint.
