    Hi Riders

    My qingqi 200 supermotard has les than 8 month. (15000 km) and burn the velocimeter panel light for the second time. (firs time at 3000 Km aprox)

    I dismout the instrument panel anf take a look to the lights. They have an interesting disign that seems a litle fragile for me.

    Of course donīt think that this is the problem. I guess that couse is a long filament (at that proportions) the vibration must to afect it and thats becouse it broke.

    Im looking to change all for LEDs. Red LEDs so they donīt affect my night vision. What you think.

    Now I have to dig this litle city to find those Red LEDs. A complete Adventure!!!!

    Any other with this lights going out? or maybe I have to check more the electrical circuits.
    Qingqi 200 Supermotard. (Genesis) Mods Until now:Rised Handelbar with stock risers and a lot of washers. Almost 10cm. Pillion handles eliminated and enduro model rack puted in place with turn signals just ziptied to it. Abominable Top Box over rack! Kickstarter removed for comfort (now inside TopBox). PCV pipe bolted to subframe holding my tools. Acerbis supermoto handlebar protector. Turnsignals bolted to the Abominable Top Box base.

    If the filament is broken, it's likely the bulb design and vibrations. There are many companies that sell LED replacement lights. They are usually not expensive and quite cheap to ship.

    Can you put up a picture of the bulb type?
