Try this site(s)

The possibilities are many and the cost manageable. The lights are 5 3/4" and the mount is plastic and to the forks. Mine are a bit smaller and I mounted directly to the original bracket.

I also ride a Suzuki Bandit and I was just looking at what was on ebay....good luck, let us know how you make out. 8)

Boxer,

Great info. This will fall on my list of winter projects. You indicated that the lights you used were slightly smaller. What diameter lights did you use?

I really like the lights sold by the second link that you provided. From what I recall we have 43 mm forks correct. I will shoot an e-mail to the owner of the second link about pricing and availability. If I do this project, I will be sure to take detailed pics of the install for all the gang on the site.
