Let me know what you think...I paid 14 bucks for them brand new. Fits perfectly using the same bolts that hold down the Renthals.

I got them in Taiwan...I think the box says 20watts but it looks just as bright as the stock ones. I got the clear ones, it also comes in blue, green and red. But the color ones shouldnt be as bright, just for looks I think becuase the color lenses on them were kinda of dark.

As far as im concerned they shouldnt cause any problems to the electrical system or battery. It turns on when I turn on the high beams only.

the stock 400 stator puts out 150 watts you NEED 50 watts reserved for the charging of the battery and ignition so you can safely run 100 watts of lights. I was told this by Ricky Stator

Whats the brand on them?

Heres some similar, theres a guy selling these on ebay for $45, But you can get then from JC Whitney for $14.99 and there 50watts each!

The new lights are 20W and I believe the stock ones are 35w? So in that case I have less than 100 watts so it should be ok.
The lights at JcWhitney are nice but it seems it is almost 4 inches in height. I like mine cause they are smaller and wont stick out above the handlebars. The lights I have are made in Taiwan.

How did you wire your lights, do you have another switch just for the trail tech lights?

If you were to fall and hit your chest on the bars you would probably end up hitting the lights first:(

I just took the two front handlebar bolts off and it fit perfectly. It comes with the mounting brackets you see in the picture. The holes on the bracket fit perfect with the stock bolts that hold the bar down.

Cool,now you can look down a dark trail w/o having to be facing in that direction,I like the look of "fixed" lights but like the use of them on the bars,those look sweet:cool:

Man, I really wanna get a pair of those now. So are they hard to wire up? What wattage should I get for my 300?

Thanx,

Oh my god are those TIGHT! Do they make the stock lights less bright, and is it 20 watts per light or for the set? Come on tell us exactly where you purchased them!
