I think it would be cool to see photos of different bike light set-ups.
I use the Fish and Fenix bike mounts with a total of three head lights by Fenix-the TK11, LD20 and PD30. The TK11 is on max and the LD20 and PD30 are on strobe when I ride. I also have two multi-LED tail lights set to random flash. I have a Fish mount on my helmet that I can mount one of the lights with to give me directional light where I turn my head.

I enjoy riding my bike at night but safety is a primary concern and good lighting is beneficial. :twothumbs

My mistake and my apologies. Perhaps a Moderator can move it to the appropriate forum.:sigh::green::mad:

While waiting for the forum move here's a photo of the set up on one of my bikes. All the lights are home made. The headlight is a P7 with Shark Remora driver and a "remote" mode switch beside the L hand gear shift. The tail light is a solid 1 inch diameter bar of acrylic with 2 red leds embeded so that its virtually indestructable. Most importantly it has excellent visibility from all angles including the side. I made the strobe driver myself.

Hey DeFab-
That is an awesome arrangement of some cool illumination tools. You did a great job fabricating the mounting hardware. I'll bet the trail ahead of you looks like daytime. BTW how do you post photos like that with your reply to threads? I just know of using copy & paste photobucket addresses.:thinking:

Hi pe2er,
I like your double tail lights.
It's not the motorists in front of me I wory about (I can see them) but it's the guys behind me. I use a flashing light on the back of my helmet plus the bike taillight plus passive reflectors.

I like your double tail lights.
Thanks!

I worry about both :p
- Oncoming traffic with blinding HID Lights
- Traffic coming up behind me

..especially in the dark on an 80 kph road, and a combination of overtaking oncoming cars and cars approaching from the rear.
Fortunately, this does not happen too often ;)
