Re: PLEASE HELP!!!!

This thing even binds when you have the cover off and try the electric start! That is normal. I cannot electric start mine with the cover off. The cover lines up the starter with the bendix. Check the Ground connection by the starter. It should be attached to one of the bolts that hold the starter ...

What I especially like about these kits is the low continuous current draw of 3A, which is close to the stock 2...

Re: HID Lights on a spree.

It is so blinding, oncoming traffic is traumatized. What good does it do if people can see you, but so blinded, they swerve and r...

Re: HID Lights on a spree.

I found these on ebay. $20 for two. They should fit my modded housing AND have very low power consumption. But because they are LEDs, they will NOT work on the stock AC setup. rewiring is a must for this setup. http://i751.photobucket.com/albums/xx159/trafficjamz2/ledh11.jpg Maybe this setup would b...
