Re: bd43's 07 Headlight Mod Part 2
Just wanted to say thanks for the great write-up! So much better than any of the other mods.
I was riding towards a store-front today and saw my bike's reflection....it looks so much better with two headlights! Thanks again! |

Re: bd43's 07 Headlight Mod Part 2
Just installed to mod to a 2008 UK spec bike. No problems at all. Very neat solution. Ordered the wire a week ago on Friday morning, and it arrived at home at the UK the following Friday. Many thanks. Steve.

Re: bd43's 07 Headlight Mod Part 2
I followed the instructions and it works flawlessly. This was the first time I've flipped up the tank and worked inside the bike. Thanks for the step by step instructions.

Re: bd43's 07 Headlight Mod Part 2
BD43, Thank you for this brilliant mod. The quality of the part is as good, if not better than a manufacturers part. Clear instructions, lightning fast delivery and well packaged.
I fitted it yesterday and it works a treat. I had a close call though. I was out when it was delivered and our two West Highland White Terriers got the package. Luckily they were more interested in the package than the mod. ![]() Once again thanks and if anyone is unsure if they should go for this mod, go on, treat yourself!

Re: bd43's 07 Headlight Mod Part 2
I actually ordered mine some time ago (about a month) and just got around to installing it. Instructions were great and covered every step to make it work nicely. I did hop onto the thread to double check on the air box removal since I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to rip out anything important. But all in all it was simple and just as expected, it looks great. Thanks BD for everything, he shipped it in a hurry and I got it in less then one week after ordering which is quite a feat considering how far it traveled. Best addition to the bike to date!

Re: bd43's 07 Headlight Mod Part 2
I got the wire in Thursday, and hooked up on Friday. Thanks alot. Your instructions that you sent with the wire were great!! No worries at all. The wire's construction was more than I could expect. Everyone should do this from the get go. Now I wont hear...."did you know you have a headlight out"....I thank you.

Re: bd43's 07 Headlight Mod Part 2
I got mine yesterday and installed it today. I'm just as pleased with the wire I received as everyone else. Works great.
I noticed a missing bolt on my bike during the install! One of the bolts that holds the top of the battery case and air box down was missing. Either Yamaha or my dealer must have missed it. Nothing a quick trip to the hardware store couldn't fix though. Now I have all my bolts! |
