Your post got trampled. Personally, I think that light looks fantastic. Maybe put the other one on and take a few pics. If you choose only one, I'd put it on the side opposite oncoming traffic.
Thanks ..

Gives it a retro look, especially with the new valve covers.
Probably put a Hella driving lamp with a white cover on it.
In the UK on coming traffic is the right hand side so is that better 🤷‍♂️

:pI like the large diameter light and the glass out in the open . In your case, move it to the other side if you don't use two lamps. Just my opinion though. We all have to make them ours, after all. :cool:
I've tried the other side but I prefer it on the R/H side, looks better on the side stand and it will illuminate more of the road being closer to the centre markers.
Just found another 2 boxes of these retro brand new lights in the garage haha. Could have 6 😂

Finished fitting the L/H 2v cover if you saw my thread you would see they were not a straight fit and needed work to them.

Then took it for the first long ride since:

Fitting the rev counter
New air filter
New iridium spark plugs set of 4
New 2v valve covers
Painted the headlight grill black
Installing a crash bar driving lamp ( not wired in yet as I may change the lamp)
Wunderlich comfort seat (I was going to return but made it fit slightly better when moving the fuel tank rearwards when tightening back up.
