Headlight guard

You would think there is a generic one that we could use. I will take one for my 07 when you start making them.

TCI makes one specifically for the TW.

I am also looking for one, do you think this one would do (4" x 6")?

Here's the one from TCI Products. It's heavy duty, but also has a price to match.

Had the Mesh screen on my KLR, but went with the Lexan Plastic. Easier to clean. the same one fit's my '07 TW200. Easy to clean and suppose to be rock proof. Find it on: www.Dual-Star.com LiteGuard #20-01037 $12.95

Thanks now I know what the dub is getting for Christmas.

Are TW headlights a common design, available at auto parts stores and other places? Or are they specific to TW's?

My headlight glass (& inside reflective material) is fairly dull and I'd like it to be nice and bright.

Thanks for any help!

Nope. Motorcycle-only. Dealer item.



It's a real pain, but you can take it off the bike, remove the bulb and throw it in the sink with hot, soapy water. Using an old soft toothbruch through the bulb hole you can clean all the scum off the glass and reflector and be good as new.



A small piece of rag pushed around with the toothbrush gets into the corners. Just don't scrub the reflector hard enough to scratch or tweek it.

I wonder if that tci model will fit along with my front cyclerack?

The TCI guard can be bought at newenough for $38.99:

I have one. Let me take a look at it and I'll see if it looks like it would interfere.

A kitchen sponge with the scrubber pad also works great to clean up the inside of a headlight lense. Scrub gently with light pressure from a plastic or wood rod. A bit of liguid dish detergent helps lube the pad to prevent scratching.
