Cost is often a primary factor. It is on my projects as well! I try to balance cost and esthetic.

Just as I'm planning to keep my Tiger long time I finally purchased this.

This is made 4mm aluminium (bottom) and 2mm aluminium (sides). I think this looks even better than Triumph's original sump guard and also offers better protection. I found this pretty nice price from one mb-shop in Estonia (posted to my place).
I should get it pretty quickly (Estonia is not far).

Back to those led-lights I bought. They work ok. I connected them directly to battery :( (easy way). Already that was enough of me .. remove the covers/plastics of bike to get wires go nicely (luckily I did not need to take a tank away). I can on/off the lights via that switcher which came together with lthem. Also other options works ok. Of course there is (a theoretical) possibility that I would leave those lights on as I'll shut down the motor/bike (and run down the battery).

Ok. TodayI just saw this (internet). If that works, it could be good option for person like me (= a rookie with electricity matters of motorbikes)?

Sorry, I can not anymore. 1 generation installation is already done.

I can operate lights with that switcher (even as I have connected these led-lights directly to battery).

As/if the lights are off-state. Then ...

1. push (upper lamp picture) will give a short beam yellow light
2. push (upper lamp picture) will give long beam white light
3. push (upper lamp picture) will give yellow light and white light together
4. push (upper lamp picture) will give again a short beam yellow light (and so on ... this goes around)

1. push (lower ''light'' picture) will give a strobe light action ... using white light ... the both lamps will flash/blink same time/same ways.
2. pus (lower ''light'' picture will give another strobe light action .... using white light ... first left light will blink 3 times, then right light will blink 3 times, then again left light ... and so on.
3. push (lower ''light'' picture) will again give that 1 strobe action ... white light ... both lamps will flash/blink same time. And so on. This also goes around.

A long push of lower ''light'' picture will close/shut down the lights.

Switcher has a green mark light (as the lights are on). If the stobe light model is used that green light will blink/flash as well.

The only thing which I do not like is that I by accidentally (or somebody else) simply can turn the light ON even as the ignition lock would be OFF. Or I simply could forget to leave the lights ON after riding/closing the ignition lock. I know I could change/solve that like you guys, but all that sounded too complicated for me. So for this (and the same issue with the dash camera) ... I will gonna benefit that Healtect Thunderbox.

All you need is a 4 or 5 pin relay. The cost of which is less than £4 at Halfords.
