Speaking of Modulators - I think it was two days ago I ran across a
cruiser with modulated fog lights / running lights - but the headlight
was stock.
Struck me as a good idea, since almost every bike could have a
set of fog / running lights added and when adding, its a simple matter
to wire in a modulator.
