Lighting upgrades....

Are there any quick fix lighting upgrades for mk2 CRMS? drove it in the dark last night for the first time (back home from TRF meeting), very dissapointed would be an understatement!

Used main beam all the way and nobody noticed!

can you fit a more powerfull bulb? is there an after market light unit that doesn't look out of place?

thanks

Phil

The AR headlamp is loads better than my MK2. but they are expensive & glass

radiation, a glow worm or a miners hat are also better than a MK2, took it out in the dark once got lost couldn`t find my way home. (and i only went to the end of the road!)

I think TBM did a review of road legal ones a month or 2 back, will have look and see whats what.

I may see what bulbs fit and have a play.

Thanks guys

I fitted a acerbis style twin halogen light to my mk3 and it looks like it was ment to be there

yeah the twin halogen lights look the buisness but they are poo at night
riding around the streets when there are street lights on its not a problem
try going out bush at night where there are no lights you might as well be wearing a blindfold as for putting higher wattage globes in a standard light you can do it but I wouldn't suggest it as there is no battery I have no idea what it would do to the power generating system you might blow a fuse or a relay. The light that my bike came with wasn't the standard one but it was bloody exellent it used a hella insert identical to one fitted in an 90's model audi it was extremly effective but bloody ugly and was heavy
I suggest you go and buy a twin halogen light because we all know that looks are important

I has a polisport one on order with MandP (3 months ago!) cancelled the order yesterday as i figured i can manage with the standard one, as i have done for 3 months!

i,ve got a 92 mk2 import. (i,m located in australia) the light on my bike is original but has what i've been told is a \"semi halogen bulb\" this light leaves all my mates xrs &wrs lights for dead. (dual head lights as well) i'd never heard of these bulbs before but the bike shop tells me thats what it is. hope this helps.
cheers rikkster

I like the idea of the 85w one, not sure if the wiring would be up for it though... $54 doesn't seem a bad price, probably double it with shipping though:(

I have paid for shipping US$ 25 i am in sri lanka

could be less for UK it tooks 5 days to received here. Give me couple of days i will send pic of all assembling.

that would be cool, which one did you order? I do worry about the fact that it is only 35w as standard, do you know what the rating of the generator is?
