Yes, The Flashpoint LED motorcycle headlight 7” and 5.75” is ECE, E-marked and DOT approved. Each headlight has a Stamp on the lense with the certification number and E-mark printed on it. The 4.5” headlight has no E-mark on it, as the beam it casts is too wide and only has an on/off function.

If the OEM headlight size is the same as the one you have purchased then yes, you will most likely be able to utilise the factory mounts. If the size is different, the use of spacers can aid in the mounting of your headlight, but we would encourage you to get creative and make something to mount your headlight. That’s what custom bikes are all about!We do not supply any aftermarket mounting brackets, our custom motorcycles all receive unique hand made mounts for the headlight.

Our headlights come standard with a H4 Male plug. This suits a lot of British, American and Japanese motorcycles. It does not suit all.

Yes, the black box is designed to function with any aftermarket momentary push buttons including Motogadget, revival cycles, and the dreaded e-bay specials (insert skull emoji)

Generally no, the black box is designed to work with momentary switches only. Some Harley Davidson models can be used with the black box, but most other motorcycle makes are unsuitable. You will need to upgrade your switches to PBM buttons to have the module function correctly.

Purpose Built Moto handlebar switches are momentary only. The addition of latching switches would make the switches bulky. We designed the slimmest and most practical switch block on the market, the momentary push buttons were a necessity in that solution.

Most motorcycles with indicators and electric start will run a set of 2 x 3-button switches.

Left turn, right turn and horn + high/low, start and kill switch.

Kick start only motorcycles can run 1 x 2-button switch and 1 x 3-button switch.
If your motorcycle is running no indicators, or you want to hide your start and kill buttons elsewhere that number can be reduced again, these buttons can be set up in any configuration and placement that you like. 

Depending on which switch configuration you have purchased, refer to the installation guide.
