Thumbs up Installed headlight+taillight! Works great!

Yesterday I picked up a headlight/taillight combo at a local bike shop. It was $34.00 for the pair. I mounted the headlamp on my bars next to the triple clamp. Its small and bright! 2.4 watts runs off 4 AA battery's they last 6 hours! The taillight is a LED has 2 settings....solid or flashing uses 2 AAA batery's....says they will last 1000 hours!!! Very bright!

I'll post pic's later tonight.

Here's one pic from last night.....you can see the headlamp (its off) on my bars to the left of my triple clamp.....its very bright!

The lights are made by Trek.....I bought another set for my pocket bike, and ended up putting the second set on my fiddy! So now there is 2 bright headlights. They work great!

Re: Installed headlight+taillight! Works great!

Those headlights suck I tried using those on a trail at night, and I couldn't see more than 5 feet in front of me. If you want a bright headlight, get a HID system from niterider :YEAH Had one guy with that the night we hit the trail, and the rest of us with our little AA powered lights just used the light that was provided by the one rider with the HID's

:YEAH The HID's are as bright as your motorcycles light on highbeam
