I recently installed a custom light system on my 1980s BMW R80 project, and I'm excited to share the process with you. In this video, I'll walk you through each step of installing a sleek and functional lighting setup that perfectly complements the bike's classic design. To start, I sourced a set of LED lights from a reputable supplier, specifically designed for motorcycles. These lights are known for their exceptional brightness, durability, and energy efficiency, making them an ideal choice for my project. Next, I carefully planned out the layout of the lighting system, taking into consideration the bike's existing wiring harness and any potential obstructions. This involved measuring and mapping out the optimal placement of each light to ensure a seamless integration with the surrounding components. With the plan in place, I began the installation process by disconnecting the battery and locating the necessary wiring connections. I then carefully routed the new wires through the bike's chassis, making sure they were securely fastened to prevent any damage or shorts. Once the wiring was complete, I turned my attention to mounting the LED lights themselves. This involved drilling precise holes in the appropriate locations and using a combination of adhesives and mechanical fasteners to secure the lights firmly in place. With all the lights mounted, I connected them to the newly installed wiring harness and powered up the system. The result was a stunning display of bright, even illumination that perfectly highlighted the bike's sleek lines and curves. Throughout this project, I made sure to document each step of the process, from planning to completion, so you can see exactly how I achieved this impressive lighting setup on my BMW R80.
