Head light
littlewing78:
I have a 99 Kx 500 and I want to add a head light. I have tried to research this but there seems to be tons of ways to go about it. I am still confused though. All I want is the head light. I will probably rarely use it but there have been times I wished I had one. I am looking for cheap and simple. Thanks.

If you are not going use it often and don't want to spend much check into helmet lights. Then you can use it on anything you ride.

It's not as simple as "just adding a headlight" . You also need to upgrade the stator to be able to have 12V AC output .

To do it right to be reliable it is going cost about $700 at least, more if you actually want lights that are worth a crap. Don't waste your time with the Moose add on lighting coil. It is 35w peak at best and is not worth the headache. There is really only one option available right now, and it is reliable.
