Cree lights?

[garyboy]

Cree lights seem to be the preferred front lights?
what do you recommend ?
its for my crf250L and I want a pair that will fit somewhere on the forks? or somewhere below the headlight.
not too much battery drain, but fitted direct to the battery, with on/off switch, and possible head/dip
Quite bright but not too heavy?

o .. and answers before midnight? .. and not too expensive, but good quality and waterproof?

Will be more than bright enough to light up yours and Cones love tunnel

I got a pair on the bike wired into a permanent live with a switch. Very low draw so handy if you ever need light without the ignition or engine running. Can happily leave them on long enough to set up tent

thankyou Tim …
don't suppose they come with wiring, switch/s, brackets ??
have you got to fabricate u own ?

[zimtim]

Not sure where you want to mount them
Mine are on my crash bars using

Have a search you can get ones that will fit your front forks
They do actually come with a flat bracket .
My switch is a small waterproof flush fitting rocker switch mounted non dash. You can get waterproof switch that mount on handle bars think heated grip switch

I would post some pics of all components but this sight makes posting pics such a chore.

Thankyou Tim .. I know what u mean about posting pics here

Greetings,

Simply as a back up incase of 12V bulb failure I have a bicycle orientated cree style light similar to the one here;

It works really well for a simple single unit.

TTFN

Hugh.

I've got the same ebay cree's as mentioned above. Mounted on the R&G lightbar. They're really good, BRIGHT, and cheap as chips. I also found and bought amber lenses (ebay link) , so you can run them as daytime lights without pi**ing off cagers, and as fog lights.

just bought some of these that I'm planning on fitting to the wr450 after another terrifying ride home in the dark recently after a day on the lanes, lit only by the stock "candle" headlight.
I am thinking of splicing into the high beam live to draw power for them... stock output stator, to much???
I am also planning on fitting some heated grips, (the laminate element type that go under stock grips).possibly through indicator switch. again, will I be asking to much of the stock stator.
