The bar comes with 4 55watt halogen lights.

The bar itself is nice but the black coating is pretty awfull. Comes off at the slightest touch. I gave it a good coat of paint as well.

Matt black!!!! Never  ...matt black is for bikes  :roll:

Just got meself one of these bars from ebay, comes with all the lights etc.

The bar itself is good quality but where it been sent through the post some of the paint has been removed and needs touching up before fixing to the motor.

I would advise anyone getting one of these bars to completely repaint the bar before fixing it to their motor.  As time has progressed mine has become more rusty.  At some point in the spring I will have to remove it, and the lights, and give it a damn good Hammeriting!!

Ditto. Mine is awful after just a couple of months. Red rust across the whloe thing. It showed signs after just 2 weeks!

The bonnet glare thing is a pain. It is worse with a bonnet mounted spare too. I am looking for suitable tubes to fit to my lights to throw a shaddow on the bonnet. Not yet found anything to do the job though. Anyone got any ideas for 3.25" bore tubing?
