Do you have any sort of fairing or fly screen?

 

Yes,-- the unit garage, but the GPS seems to occupy all the vision in that direction

thanks,

Bill

 

I was thinking you might be able to hide itOn that faring. You don’t have to see it you just have to know where your thumb can press the button that would even be a better place than on the handlebars in my opinion

 

Thanks, I will take a look in the morning.
Its probably more weatherproof there as well!

Thanks again,

Bill

 

Sorry for the blurry photo but I mounted my fog light switch with some double sided tape on the clutch reservoir.

 

Here ya go, Amazon $13 US bucks, it fit nicely between my mirror and switch cluster on Bean and I chose to mount it on the low position because I can thumb it without having to look for it whilst riding. I had it flipped over first and needed to push the mirror over about 2cm to fit in between but mounted high it was a bit less convienent to hit with my thumb and mounting low let the mirror go back, although it had to move so little it didn't really matter.

It was very easy to hook up to my Baja Design lights once I followed the wiring schematic and is nice because when the lights are on the switch lights up. BMW also makes a stock mounting switch that goes right on the mirror mount, however, it is over a $100 dollars US and may not work with all types of accessories.

Great suggestions, will work on one of them,

Thanks,

By far the cleanest option is still this one;

Neat!, thanks,

Chris' solution does look like the neatest. Here is the Denali dual high/low switch on my bike. I was able to locate it in the right place on the bars and it's supposedly water-proof, but it's way too big by comparison with Chris' photo above.

 

I have one of these on my left bars for the spots, easy to fit, cheap and so far durable.

Thanks RCB and HG,

Plenty to look at now,

I bought mine on Amazon as well. Affordable, and works well.

 

For what its worth, I mounted mine on the LH Mirror where it meets the base.
Makes it easy to select each of the three switches within the rotation reach of my thumb.
Each switch has a different backlit halo color which helps allot at night.
(also, each individual switch can be swapped for other types[momentary]/shapes[raised button]/colors[R Y B G], with some creative shopping)
Switch was ~$24.00 on Amazon
Here's another option I found that might work too - ~$18.00 on Amazon

Although I may be upgrading to a bluetooth remote with a relay box under the seat, due to a number of accessories I am adding.

 

That's pretty cool. I just purchased the single button version on Amazon for aux lights. But that 3 button unit is pretty nifty.

 

I wired mine into the high-beam circuit, no switch needed.

Hi, I have wired some LED spots onto the bike. Biggest problem is finding a decent on off switch and where to mount it. Choices are at the grip area---bought one, but not enough room, or at the head stock end at 30mm. The choice in 30mm switches is not good so far.

Any advice welcome,

Thanks,

Bill
