blown head/tail light

[atvmxr]

so Im headed out into the dunes for a night ride and after less than a minute or so both my tail light and headlight bulbs blew out. any ideas what would cause this?

Bad voltage regulator, did you pin it before the lights blew?

[86 Quad R]

either the voltage regulator is bad or you have a bad connection on either of the wires that lead from the regulator

[atvmxr]

where is the voltage regulator?


i dont recall seeing any heatsink box like my 350x has...

[j28d]

Little silver heatsink type box under the front fenders/hood. If you don't have one at all, that may explain the lights blowing out.

i looked all over both my R's for this darn thing and got nothing. I know I've ridden dunes at night before so Im at a loss where it went to...
its supposed to be under the hood, right?
