I decided I wanted aux driving lights on the VTX and didn't want to spend hundreds for shiny chrome crap that'll just get dirty again. [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Kuryakyn-7803-Accessory-Cylinder-Reservoir/dp/B000XY5184/ref=au_as_r?ie=UTF8&Make=Honda%7C59&Model=VTX1800R%7C20271&Year=2002%7C2002&n=15684181&newVehicle=1&s=automotive&vehicleId=2&vehicleType=motorcycle"]I already had an aux power switch cluster mounted on the VTX[/ame]:
So I just picked up these 18w 6 Cree LED driving lights off of Amazon for $26:

The resulting lights are pretty unobtrusive looking:
But are pretty doggone bright and give me the desired triangle of light:
What do ya'll think? (Excuse the bug guts/dirt- I got them mounted just in time to go to Austin for MotoGP.) Total project cost is right at $60 without the switch cluster; cheap switches can be had for cents on the dollar. If your setup is cheaper and/or more effective please share it with me!
