Can the light head be turned to use on the front fork arm? I have no room left on the bar.

You could put it on the fork assumin it's not a suspension fork. You could also buy a bar extender to provide more space for lights and other gear

You could but the clamping mechism is a thick rubberband vs. a traditional clamp like you see on many of the higher end brands. I would not recommend mounting it to the fork. There are companies that make handle bar entensions your type of situation.

The lamp is attached via a heavy duty rubber band. It holds well, but you cannot adjust it left or right, or in your application, up and down. So if you attach it to your front fork arm, it may point upwards too much depending on the angle of your forks. Hope this helps.

It could be but you would probably have to turn it sideways. A headlight lamp would be a better option. Planet Bike Blaze 1/2-Watt LED Bicycle Light with Helmet and QuickCam Mounts:Planet Bike Blaze 1/2-Watt LED Bicycle Light with Helmet and QuickCam Mounts

No, it sits a little forward of the windshield header. You will be able to remove and install your soft top as if the light bar is not there.

The headlamp can twist about 15 in either direction from the mounting band. You'd have to measure the angle of the stem on your bike and, of course, you'd like it to be angled slightly downward to light up the road not straight ahead. My guess is mounting it the way you want may be a problem.

You could, but the front of your bike may set higher than the rear. The fork is for a taller wheel.

The Clamplight is not a good choice for your bike - it will fall off. All you need is a light made for a bike that screws onto thehandlebars. Any bike store will carry this item or check Kmart, Home Depot, Sears etc.

Wrap some black electrical tape around your handle bar where you mount this. It prevents the light from moving on the bar.

Yes you can. remove the bolt on the back of the mounting plat. remove the set screw. cut the bar with a metal saw. reassemble in reverse order.

Well I took a look at it and the mirror will not rotate enough to be a viable solution for the top bar you might be able to attach it to the handle bars though.

I'm hoping NiteRider will make one. But if they don't, I'm going to use my Planet Bike taillight mount, which will accept this light. I will add a rubber band to hold the light onto the mount, as the NiteRider click hold mechanism does not interoperate with Planet Bike. YOu can order the taillight rack mount a la carte from Planet Bike (or at least, you used to be able to).

I had to modify all clamps and brackets to fit my 'non' round handle bars and my front forks. After modifications the windshiled formed well over my head lamp on my yamaha maxim. Summary is that the shield should fit all older style bikes where it sits on the light it just may need mounting brackets to be modified

If you were to install a mount on both bikes, then you could attach/release the light in literally 1 second. Otherwise, taking off and on the mount to transfer it from one bike to the other might take a few minutes and require a tool. It may also cause to the mount device/screw to wear out early. To keep the mount firmly secured so that it doesn't swivel and cause the light to droop to low, wrap a thin piece of rubber--like a small piece of an old inner-tube--around the handlebar spot where the mount will be secured. Then, it will fit snugly.

Yes you can. However the steerer tube of the forks will be too long for the head tube. Personally I like my stems slammed. With no spacers. I always cut my steerer tubes down. But if you don't mind using a small amount of spacers you should have no problems.

I don't have the light so I don't know. The top bar does have 2 holes on each side to mount lights.

Not out of the box. It's designed to be mounted to the fork crown. If you're reasonably handy, it shouldn't be difficult to come up with a simple mount--all you need is a bracket that you can fix the loop to. Alternatively, you could remove the light from its "loop" bracket and attach it, using the same screw hole, to some other kind of mounting.However, one thing to which you should pay attention is the wire that runs from the light to the dynamo; make sure it's long enough to make the travel without being stretched. It's simple to solder on an extension if you need to, but it's best if you don't have to do that. Not out of the box. It's designed to be mounted to the fork crown.

I believe you can, but you may want to simply undo the mount and light together and take it with you when you park the bike.

Yes, this model can be mounted on either the handle bars (east - west) or the stem (north - south). The attachment plate can be turned to mount in either direction.
