Night vision on the road

Post by guy » 04 Aug 2011, 12:09

Hi, what's the best solution to upgrade a mk1 headlight? I am using the bike for commuting now she is back on the road (thanks for all the advice) and as the nights are drawing in I find it impossible to ride after dusk. All help much appreciated. Guy

the lights on AR's are a lot better or find an aftermarket one.
AR's rock!!!
TwinAir filter, Braided Brake Hoses, Swingarm/Shock bearings done!, Rear Shock overhauled and customised by G-Force, 14-44 Gearing, Exhaust decoked (fun with Caustic Soda!), DEP silencer.

A lens for an AR cost £105 four year's ago when I looked into it and doesn't fit the other Mks surround.

Loads of aftermarket lights around. Go for a halogen light (preferably with a glass lens though not compulsary).
