Head light

[robicon]

What light are you running stock or after? And any thoughts please.

I generally run a number plate to keep my stock head light safe; I haven't had mine street legal for a number of years.

I will be running a number plate But I do want to ride a night aswell. Not sure what light I should go with.

running a trail tech on my 12 300

Define "ride at night" If you are talking about grabbing some groceries or some mild trail riding the stocker will be fine - all 35W of it. For serious night riding you are looking at HID for head light and helmet.

HID or Halogen? How do you like it? I had a Trailtech HID on my last bike, and it definitely throws a lot of light.

You obviously either need a new voltage regulator, or make sure of the connections to your current voltage regulator.

Is it possible to run the trail tech halogen light with the stock stator, and how does the stock '11 headlight perform?

I have a UFO dual light up front, will wire both lights for high beam when I get the proper switch. It's hard wired on one light right now, seems to work fairly well. Here's an example:
