New Headlight for my Street magic

**circuitR** · 10th June 2006, 15:10

Hey everyone,
I never really liked the AG100 style headlight on my SM2, so I got this twin set from scootling for $120.
It's fake carbon fibre but who cares.
You'll have to check my profile as for the life of me I couldn't attach the freakin photo!

DUDE!!! That's the one that GhostRider uses on his Hayabusa and BMX.. What's the address of that shop? (do they have a web site?)

Hows that light for brightness and visibility at night? I am keen to ditch the farmbike look on mine but I do a lot of night riding and dont want some pissy roadbike light replica....

www.scootling.co.nz. It hasnt been open long but the guy is a good dude. Got some awesome old school sooters in his shop too.

it's two halogen-style lights.. and if it's good enough for ghostrider.. it should be good enough for you

Scootling is on the corner of Ponsonby Rd and Gt North Rd. The website is scootling.co.nz

As for riding at night, they are pretty bright, but they are a narrow beam (kitchen lights) I drive in the city so street lights help.

Yea true... but Ghost Rider is a nutter... not being able to see while doing 350 km/h at night to see would just be more of a kick....

cool headlight dude any customisation is a good thing.

**ZeroIndex** · 10th June 2006, 17:27

going on what texmo said: yeah, customisation IS good

you should do the bike and headlight in the above flouro yellow (like ghostrider's hayabusa) *you don't have to if you don't want to though..*

but on ghostrider's turbo busa, if it was matt black, no one would notice the +/-350km/h wheelies

Ha ha, I don't think my skills or speed is up to ghostriders level yet.
Has any one else in NZ got these lights? Or am I the first in the country as Scootling have just got these bad boys in.
Jeremy, Is your 110 orange? I think I may have seen you riding on Symonds St a while ago.

Probably better that you did replace the whole headlight unit - it cost me $60 for a new replacement bulb on mine and there's no pirate/alternate bulb avail so ya have to pay the bloody high price!

It's a weird size: 12V 35/30W double pin with locking pins like nothing else.

Good investment in changing ya headlight assembly $120
Or wasting ya dosh $60

Go figure.........
