Thank you. I chose the led off road light as I was unhappy with the stock sealed beam. I have used h4 halogen, and hid before and was never satisfied with the light output On those either. I don't ride at night often, but when I do, it's nice to see. due to the headlight being extremely bright I point it downward a bit more and run a flood beam. Even still the output it about 5x more. Led headlights are not exactly legal, but I have never been flashed by on coming traffic and have not been stopped for it.
It's an led off-road light. This is the one I bought. https://www.amazon.com/Online-LED-S...1210&sr=8-15&keywords=Round+led+offroad+light
Hi Pete,
Not a not picker at all! In that picture I had just installed a new tube, unfortunately I'm still gettinf used to changing tires. I had ended up pinching it causing a leak. The second photo the tire is inflated with a new non punctured tube
Thank you. The rims are just painted (hence all the scuff marks around the sides of the rim) the old paint was so beat that when I end up touching these up they will look way better. The seat I grabbed off eBay, I think it was like $80. I cut the rear hoop off, as of now the fender is just stuffed in there. I'm not a welder by any means so I try to find bolt on solutions. How to mount up the fender is one of my next items to tackle.
I may still have some stuff I can dig through, although I'm not sure if any of it is worth having. I think the best item I have left is the stock seat.
Luckily my mags are tubeless compatible that if I wish to run tubeless i can. In fact, I am tubeless in my rear tire, but have a tube up front. Reason being is that with the front, the tire would not seat on the bead, no matter what I did. I looked at the rim and it appears straight with no flaws I can see that would prevent it from seating. The PO actually had this set up as well, (tubeless rear tube front) maybe they had the same issue. I've always had tubes in all of my other bikes except one, and I have yet to get a flat on any of them. Knock on wood ha-ha I can't say it matters to me one way or the other, but changing a tube on the side of the road would be terrible. Whenever the front tire wears out I'll have the wheel checked by a shop and see if it was just the tire or if there's something wrong with the wheel. FWIW I ran these wheels for about a month before swapping them to this bike and they were fine
Wow that is a crazy thread. I am definitely going to have to do a ton of research. I dont think I'm looking for a full on sidecar, maybe more of a sidecar adventure type rig.
Odd enough random fact. I drive a Mack concrete pump and the headlight out of one of those subs in perfectly. Lol. They have an HID version if you are so inclined and not afraid to drop a good dime. May help with the night driving legal thing
