Her's a picture (ihope it posted) of my rig, 2008 Road King with a 2000 TLE hack. BIke is dark blue pearl, car luxury blue but they are very close. Have driven it twice, handles pretty well, but has a slight pull to the right. I'm going to fine tune it, lean the bike out a bit and it should be good to go. Just wish we had some warmer temps !

The rig looks very nice. When you get a chance, if you don't mind, please post a close up picture of how the headlight is attached to the sidecar. Thanks, Dave

Dave T, here are a couple of pics of the headlight arrangement on my TLE. The bracket is a pc of flat stock that picks up two of the tub front mounting bolts, comes out straight and takes a bend fwd. I would guess it is a Harley part but would be simple to duplicate, as I doubt they're still available. then a tractor sealed-beam fixture and you're in business. I tapped into the sidecar harness and used the running light wires to power it up. previous bike had a sep. plug for it.

Thanks for the pictures, that looks like a good way to mount the light. I have seen another set up with a U-bracket mounted to the end of the spring, similar to the turn signal mount at the rear. I have to get busy and put something together. Thanks again, Dave
