I am going to add a Nautilus Twin Air horn. Believe it or not I can get one in all flat black. And then I am done, yeah right.

Almost everything I have done to the bike, I got from this site. If only this scooter had a kicker, it would be perfect.

What's up with that? Lol.
Hey folks..haven't been o in a while..been busy working and such..but I have been riding quite alot.I have 26oo plus miles on my bike,and have not had any troubles out of the norm.But.....I need to switch out my tail light assembly with the led set i have,cause I go through tail light bulbs once a week it seems..with it being a hard tail and the roads around here suck..and now I am looking to change out my headlamp.This is the topic I would like to discuss with anyone who might have an idea of what i am looking for.
I want to change to a brighter bulb configuration,and i was looking at these HID lights. anyone have a clue as to where to find kits to change these over.I know that the philis 12728 bulb that is in the headlamp already has been a bitch to find locally and I am having to order some of the net to replace mine..but i thought before i do..maybe i should go to see if i can change out the whole thing and be able to have a brighter night ride than I do now.. and access to more common bulb replacements that auto zone would sell.
So please let me know what you know.. and what i may need to do to change over to the "BRIGHT SIDE" OF RIDING.
I to had MAJOR issue's losing tail running lights and headlamps
I spliced in 2 - 6" led strips into brake light housing as the running light and left the brake light bulb as is (its brighter and didnt break like the running lamp did)
and I went to my local auto parts store and picked up a small 55w sealed beam bulb (that fit) and socket for it and spliced it in (car headlight)
since the upgrades Ive not gone thru a single bulb , that before hand was going thru 1 every 3rd or 4th ride
you lose the unstarted running light (headlamp) but end up with nearly double the sight range at night
pull headlamp out of housing and carry into auto store for sealed beam sizing and get the socket for it at same time
done many many mods but only 2 that HAD TO BE DONE , those wer change rectifier (was over charging poping bulbs - dimming on rev up and getting so much power wen rev down -pop ) and changing bulbs (anything that was "always on" wer always breaking every 3rd pothole) , approaching 2k miles on my bike now as well
I changed headlamp assembly with a 65/50 H-4 lamp & a Model A rear lamp , 200 miles no issues.

yes its a (5 1/2" ?) car sealed beam high/low beam 55/65w headlamp - 55 normal 65w highbeam
but you lose that tiny little bulb used for the motor off headlamp light
