i saw it in your build thread. My first idea was to use the original ignition key for the starter, when turned to P it had to activate the starter motor.
But finally i kinda like the idea of pushing a button to start. (and i did not want to cut up the existing ignition wiring )
i'm looking for a different headlight. At a swap meat i saw Hella Rallye 3000 lights. They are mostly used for offroad driving and on trucks, but i think it will look awesome on my tracker.
can this Hella be used as a headlight, does it need to be modified, or is it just a no-go?
When we get our safety check (here in Texas) we have to show high and low beams. I don't think the driving lights have two elements. Plus probably too powerful for general road use??
Bikes at present:
83 XL 600r with a 2004 XR650L engine
And a slightly worse for the wear BMW GS adventure bike awaiting repair
83 GL in process
I know from my jeeping days they aren't street legal over here. But a lot of things aren't street legal here and still get used all the time. In the netherlands...
the hella's has city lights and high beam, so that should be no problem.
i want to know if i can just mount them on my gl1000 or do i need to modify anything like the wiring harness?
The bulbs are 55W
i am looking for big lights larger than 8", so that's why the Hella's came up. If there are other big diameter lights (not to expensive) i wil consider them also.
added the Hella Rallye 3000 lights. i think the looks of that big rond headlight (22cm) are great but the city light is very dim. The high beam i need to check, unfortunately the weather isn't right for riding at night today
