Well I could have just put the stockers back on, but I decided to just make something i could remove and replace in a few minutes not liek the stockers for night riding. It is a 100w halogen PIAA light. I make the mount out of my old 400ex belly skid. Test it out tonight in about 30 minutes.

Heck yeah it worked. I can push down on it and watch the suspention go down. Its really sturdy. And then I just cut off the brackets on the stock grab bar:)

yeah it workd great

rode it arrounda bit, bright as hell, it shines for 150-200yards easy, and comes off with 3 bolts and a plug to change it out quick between day and night riding.

yeah we used the stock harness, if you use this light, you can only use this light, not stock or any others powered by the motor.

It is a 100watt PIAA off raod light i got a autozone for 19.99, and I made the mount from a old trashed skid plate i had, just cut it with the air cutoff tool, and bent it, then just bolts up to the ac bumper.
