Back in the 30's The British Motorcycle firm ''PANTHER'' used a Twin headlight set up on a Girder fork
I have been meaning to reproduce it on a build but not done yet,...
I think it's cool and have not seen it done,..in fact this is the only picture I have been able to find of it,
the left ( or in the States the Right) headlight Swivels from straight ahead to the dip position by pushing or pulling on a lever
like a choke or advance/retard lever as fitted to most Brit bikes prior to 1970,
looks easy enough to do, and if combined with a nitrogen gas strut to aid return to either Dip or straight ahead it would look pretty trick...……...Comment

What I used were Unity H1 spotlights. I think the H series are 4" and the S are 5 3/4" (but I could be wrong) and if you look you can find a 4" hi/low sealed beam or halogen. One of mine had a hole in the back, probably from a knob, and the other was damaged at the point, so I put in a blue dot and an amber dot, and wired them on the inside so that the amber dot would tell me when the yellow beam was on, and the blue dot was my high beam. I also used some fog light mounting brackets and a strap of steel to make a bracket for the setup. The bike is not done yet, but getting there.
