Done.

Now people can stop telling me that my head light is out. It cost me all of 5.00 and about 30 min (clean up included).

Far from the 8 minute record

but glad you got it done, and the obligatory pic is where?

H8 PVMT · 08-10-2008, 07:14 PM

Damn it....didn't know I was in a race or I'd of done it in at the most 7.5 min.

True - but he included cleaning up - he gets bonus points for that. :-)

Could anyone show me a guide i could follow to do this ? i am also sick of people telling me that i have a burned light

I read that Biker's one is the easiest and doesn't involve any drilling nor cutting. But i cannot find a post to that guide

Thanks

You need to get a part from BD first i think.

BD's is way more complicated than you really need to get - so long as you dont mind cutting the loom to find the green wire this job really can take just a few minutes - otherwise you have to do it BD's way.

Up to you........

The 8 mins version is this:

1) Locate the black rubber protective clip on the back of the bulb for the right headlight - pull it off and you will see there is no wire going into the top socket. Buy an electircal connector thing to go on that and plug it in and replace it all. You should now have three wires coming out of the back of the right hand bulb not two as before.

2) The one you have just added (best if you use black wire so you cant see it) - run that whatever way looks least visible to the left hand wiring loom that comes out of the left hand grip from the handle bar. On that loom - close to the forks so you cant see it all - make a cut of about 2 inches and pull out the green wire. You want to connect the black wire that you've run from the right hand bulb to this green wire - how you do that is up to you - I just cut some of the green plastic off and twisted it all together - you can solder if you want to be on the safe side.

3) Black tape it all up and you're done.

Just curious, does anyone just keep the brights on all the time instead? I was being told the same thing and then realized the brights would take care of this.
