Finally took her out for a ride in complete darkness. They work awesome and are very solid. I am aware that in a crash they are not mounted in the best position. My hopes are that I drilled the hole close enough to the edge that in the event of a crash the bolt would tear though the soft aluminum and not damage the braze of the fork. In the pictures I have the mount bolted directly to the braze on. I have been thinking about side to side adjustment altough with the wide beam pattern of the two lights its not necessary. But since I like to have options I have been thinking of using some disc caliper curved washer sets (in left half of below photo) to allow side to side adjustment. If I can find them in my parts bin ill try them out this weekend and post pictures and an update. Space was limited on my bars with a handlebar bag as well as the bag getting in the way of the lights.
