The NT is a bit challenging when it comes to mounting auxiliary lights like the Denalis, Clearwaters, or other driving / fog lights high up on the fairing.
After fighting with a jury rigged set up on the "nose" of my NT I used to mount my Clearwater Kristas I finally gave up. I drew up a design loosely based on Andy's mount for his Denalis as described in this Thread.
The attached drawings were created in MS Visio and then saved as a .pdf file. I have attached two drawing, one with a 12 inch light bar, and the second with a 14 inch light bar. The 12 inch is for use with Denalis or other smaller lights. The 14 inch is for use with Kristas or other larger diameter lights. I specified a heavier 3/8 inch thickness in the 14 inch version due to the increased weight of the Krista lights. This bar could also be used to mount a set of Hella SuperTone Horns or other accessories.
I have mocked it up, using cardboard, and had no fitment problems. It is designed to mount the same way Andy used with his mount in to the plastic below the headlight. Anyone who wants to use the attached templates is welcome to do so...or modify it for your usage! Maybe we can get MCL to tweak it and start making them...
I turned the 14 inch drawing in to a local machine shop and they are CNC'ing me a mount out of a single piece of 3/8 Aluminum for about $120
. I will post pictures when it is delivered.
