Can anyone identify these spotlights, or the mounting bracketry?

It all came with the bike, and I have no way to contact the previous owner to enquire, but one of our fellow forum users asked about them , so on the off chance....

IMO the brackets look home made by a decent fabricator. I could be wrong though. You're on you own for the lights. Never seen any like that....

Oh ya beauty! That is exactly what they are. I'm swapping them out for something that doesn't show blue lights on the front, it's just begging to be pulled with blue showing :)

The light bar that the brackets attach to looks like the factory Yamaha setup (I think it is sold in the EU only).

Thanks, I'll have a look on the yamaha eu site and check.

Much appreciate all the helpfulness on here.

It might just be the angle of the photo but with them being behind/ under the beak, they don't seem to be much benefit.

Exactly, they do nothing, but attract attention (which is partly their purpose I suppose) , but not the sort of attention I need.
I'm sure you have similar laws about showing blue lights.
I quite like having a license :)

A licence is overrated. They tell people wear you live so they can send you fines haha. I have smaller 10w Chinese leds that I put on a separate switch. Think I paid about £10.00 pair. They look whitish, but blue at a different angle. It seems common with a lot leds.  I just have mine pointing forwards, it gives me a bit of presence when going round narrow country lanes, it makes the bike look bigger and more imposing. I don’t use them at night because people will think I ride a BMW.  😱

That’s what I thought when I fitted mine, quite high up under beak, but when your in a car looking at them, yes, they’re effective.
