yeah yeah i've heard the whole 'snake light' bit, but i'm gonna rewire my stator soon and i'm lookin for some tips from everyone that's got their lights up and runnin. i wanna at least hook up an on/off switch and possibly a brake light but i don't know. how did everyone mount theirs, what size/wattage lights, etc etc. thanks.

awesome man, where's that pic? i still cant decide on what kinda light to get, i'll prob. get a driving light b/c the beam pattern is a little more broad than the fog light i think.

Hand wound, check my write-up. http://crf50.no-ip.com

The pic of the light was the original one I used, I replaced it with two circular driving lamps. Nice and bright just off idle.

so vonde are you saying you weren't happy w/ a light that small? i want to get a 4" round driving lamp, i think that's the largest i could fit right in between the forks.

cool cool, i still don't know how you destroyed that gsxr, bravo. it'd be cool to find a clamp that would mount the light onto the forklegs.

Re: what kinda light/stator set-up are you running?

take the number plate off and mount something off the triple clamp maybe. i have found that the lower the light is mounted, the worse it is because the fender blocks the light. u dont need some big *** light man. the fog light i use is seriously as much light as a streetbike headlight. its so cool, i still laugh when i turn it on.

I was happy with the light, but I blew it out when I forgot to ground the regulator. So I have two 2" round driving lamps now. I should really get a pic of it.......
