Awhile back I got a nice anti-vibe stem from Loren but wanted to retain the use of the stock headlight. As we know anti-vibe's don't have provisions for this so I remembered a thread on the other site where a guy started the same thing but never finished, or at least never made a follow up post. Going off what he started, to make a headlight mount you just need to cut the top off an 86-87 oem stem & grind it down on the inside enough to clear the top tube of the stem. For the first one I did I had an LSR 7/8" U shaped clamp that the headlight mount fit between just perfect when it was turned around backwards & it took minimal grinding on the bottom to clear the rear tabs on the headlight mount. I just did a 2nd one using an Alba 7/8" clamp. Here's some pics of the machining I had to do to get the headlight mount to work with the Alba clamp for those of you that want to do this same or a similar mod:
