Well i got an MX 400 but im riding a lot at night now. I have Maier race plastic with CF hood so i cant have a headlight. My buddy has YFZ and now that hes riding at night i want to also seeing it gets dark at 5 here. I just want something cheap. How many watts can i run without draining battery. Can i see some setups? Im not looking to spend a lot of money

Duct Tape a flash light to your handle bars, "cheap lights"
Trail techs are a great choice!

I had the same problem but since i only ride in snow at night in the winter i just went to wal-mart bought some cheep *** fog lights and used my stock wiring harness to hook them up. They work awesome look half decent and only cost me 25 bucks. And they disconnect in about 5 minutes.

i run a single driving light, two draws to many amps and will burn up the stator. I just have mine mounted to the steering stem.

i just cut the wires where they went into the stock headlights and used the harness. Tie the blue and white together they are your hots..and the black is the ground.
