NO batteries is right works off the white wire you will have to do a little work make a mount and paint the headlight which will require sanding if you want. No chrome as fiberglass will not chrome as far as I know.

$25.00 for the small light and that includes shipping to the lower 48 states.

Rufus is tied to the work bench and knocking out a different type.
Check it out on my home page.

Here is the new headlight on my bike just a little bigger than the first one kind of gives the bike a look of the old Harley Davidson headlight.
$35.00 and that covers shipping to the lower 48 states. You can get them in unpainted, black wrinkle, red wrinkle. With or with out the switch mounted which if mounted I mold them in place if you want to mold in your own switch I'll post a show and tell. The mounting is up to you and I can show you how to make special lugs to mount your light.

hey guys try using one of those bike generated light systems. just connect the wires that would go to the little generator to the white wire on your motor. if there are any problems check your ground.

CHEAP AND EFFECTIVE

I don't know what bulbs those little generator lights have in them. I know Norman did lots of R & D to find out the correct bulb that would put out plenty of light and not kill the engine. Bulb choice is critical to white wire lighting. One that draws to much kills the engine and one that doesn't draw enough burns out quickly........................

hey not sure how to start a thread on lights so here is my fix. i use a cheap dynamo/generater style front and rear on the front i replace the 6v 3 watt globe with a LED upgrade for maglight torch ($22) which is DC so i wired in a voltage converter($1) and a regulator($1) to stop flutter. the voltage draw on the LED is .05 watt so the engine starts perfect even when cold and there is no performance difference at all. its bright white, looks sweet and cheap.FYI the voltage draw on the 6v 3 watt filliment globe was .55 volt. any electronics shop will be able to sort you out with gear and show you how to wire it up. this really does solve this problem mine has been running sweet
