Pretty cool headlight, does it mount on a stud off the bottom?

Yes it does. I am going to make a bracket that will mount to the lower triple tree where the juction for the brake lines goes. Should also serve to hide the juction a bit

Sounds good. Are you planning a custom wiring setup?

I guess I am going to have to custom wire this bike. It will be bare bones ideally. Probably use some of the factory harness to make it happen. Not really sure yet. Been actively avoiding thinking about it too much as that side of things is definitely not my strong suit.
