hands down benelli, but i would ditch the fork covers, sink a mini speedo in the headlight, fabricate a new bracket out of round bar. open up the front end, look at woody's 350, or benji (http://www.benjiescaferacer.com/) has a horse shoe headlight bracket you could reproduce, but i think the smaller CEV (bennelli) headlight is tits, I am doing this on my kz right now myself. Or 2nd option is to follow the 50 dollar mod thread and build the speedo into the headlight with some fiber glass and filler, then use the same brackets.

Either one or two, I like two the most, but that benelli's got motsy ;D

Thanks for the input guys... I my self am leaning towards 2. The problem w/ the benelli lamp is it runs a 1156 bulb. Can you say "no light".... I know I can retro fit another brighter bulb, but the lense is so small it would turn into a spot light. I am trying to find something that I like as much as the benelli, but that will also be really functional. I'm not a big fan of being surprised by someting in the road @ 100.

Voted for the Benelli.
Best fit by far.

hid conversion kit.

I agree with the Benelli by far. Love the way she looks on there.
I'm surprised that it's not atleast a sealed beam. That's what mine is. Kanticoy picked up a conversion bulb for his at tractor supply for real cheap. Might be worth it to give it a try. I've also seen covers for the speedo since you plan not to use it.

is that a 105mm or 130mm benelli bucket?

either way the little bucket looks good.

I think 1, 2, or 3 are all good options. I think the Benelli just has a cool factor. The 380 and the cb 350 headlight look good and are a little larger. zi just think I would stay away from the 750 headlight its too boxy. Keep it up.

Well I believe I've made my choice for now. Been out in the shop goofing around, and I think that with Tach mount being finished I am going to go w/ the cb750 for now. If I can make or find some ears I like better than the stock, I might eventually run th gt380 light.

Thanks to those that took the time to participate in the pole. Your opinions are greatly appreciated.

I will post pics in the speed heap build thread... Louie
