Ryan - I know by now that you are an innovator, Rollie's suggestion is totally plausible - in fact, I have considered putting my driving lights in the scoops, but right now the scoop extensions are occupied by electric horns.
If smaller bullet-type lights were to be used, or flat LED'S, extensions would probably not have to be fabricated. You might only have to remove some of the internal ribbing of the scoops, as I did.
As for the driving lights themselves, do you want them for increased road illumination, or to make your bike more visible to other drivers? Or both reasons?
If you mount them down low - in the crash bars, or directly to the lower forks - they would certainly light up the "critter" section of the road well. But they would be subject to all kinds of road rash, and would not be visible to cars in front of you, when at stop lights or following close.
In my opinion, the best compromise is to mount driving lights fairly high, just below the level of the headlight, and with a fair amount of separation.
The majority of aftermarket light bars mount in this configuration. I have read that the "triangle" of lights, created by the headlight and the two drivers is the most conspicuous arrangement for oncoming traffic, as far as making yourself be seen.
As for my own drivers, I use two sets. When touring, I have a light bar arrangement that bolts to the bottom of the fairing, and uses 37 1/2 volt halogen sealed beams. During daytime use, folks tell me they are so bright and visible that I usually shut off the headlight.
When I have my smaller fairing mounted, I use el cheapo Blazer(tm) bullet lights. Unlike most of this variety of lights, these came equipped with MR 16 halogen bulbs, instead of the usual 55 watt plug-in type.
MR 16 bulbs are used in those ridiculously-priced BMW drivers(can't think of the brand name) The advantage of the MR 16 bulbs is that they are available at any hardware store, because they are also used for low voltage cabinet lighting, and in a large selection of wattages (20-55) and beam patterns(spot, narrow, flood)
At present, I'm using 35 watt flood MR 16s. They light up the road very well, and are aimed primarily to illuminate the road edge.
As for the headlight, I use a 7" Hella with a standard 55/60 bulb. I thought this would be an improvement over the stocker, but low-beam performance sucks. So I'm going to replace the bulb with one of those high end ($$$$) models. I had thought about HID, but there's been too many stories of failures lately. And it's very easy to carry a spare conventional bulb - not so a special HID bulb, ballast, wiring, etc.
Let us see what you come up with. Cheers!
