    Hello!
    I have the sm610s (2004) with that ugly mask and the not satisfying (at all) lights.
    Does anyone knows where can I find the newer model mask to buy?
    Will it fit or I will have to buy a front fender too?

    Any other good looking solutions?
    I have seen many huskies with the ktm like mask, which doesn't seem like a bad second option.

    *If anyone is selling his old mask (2006+ model, black) I'm interested!

    All 610 headlight are poor excuses. Didn't get any better till the 630 came out.

    Hi Durruti.
    I rode my '08 SM 610 on dark streets without public lights and the light was really too weak. So, I don't recommend a 2006+ light either.

    It's a 2" HID Projector housing...

    You can find them on those Chinese websites that take 2-6 weeks to ship items, or eBay.

    To mount it, I just used a piece of 2mm thick aluminum plate, cut a hole in it, and jigsawed off the corners and filed it all smooth.

    Thnx for the replies!
    The #2 post solutions seem out of my budget. :(
    #4 post looks interesting, I don't know if I can fix that properly though.

    Atm I'm closer to a ktm like mask.

    Just buy some aluminum plate, a hacksaw, a file, and a hole saw...

    The aluminum plate is bolted to the existing headlight bracket, and retains the adjustment point.

    I filed the V notches for the screws to grab by hand...

    Wiring it up is easy, the mask actually has a lot of room behind it to fit all the junk the HID comes with.

    Eventually I'd like to get a lexan guard made that fits into the mask that will line up with the edge to make cleaning the bugs off easy.
