12v5w bulb, part number 92069-1016. You can take a look at this site, it gives nice parts breakdowns: www.motorcyclespareparts.eu/en/kawasaki-parts/2010-er-6n-motorcycles/headlight

Hey bud, no worries. You can take a look on ebay. I also couldn't find locally so took a chance on ebay. I found one that looks similar to the one I got but the risk is yours to take. Ebay has a good money back policy so keep an eye on the expected delivery date. If you don't receive something within 30 days of the expected date, send them a message and they refund you. www.ebay.com/itm/374640817712?hash=item573a553630:g:KrkAAOSw9X5kPz0b&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAAwEuUlAPSY6%2BtexwpALQqK5NDuLVKpMIrbxjjSQ0Uem6re3uRmjOk9z8kvoZ02XYaFXailBo%2BZYCOmMqiTLwG8W%2B0gi3YrFf4gaV4Kx7sAKBFYzxsaIodOCTcGAujqpkCDZtcgvGRxOLK42XZY8eOfjG06wqvpydVTf2m9hTyywW69d8GyflmYp7h1e5GxMmcXvb5ntF9U3%2BAAkYYHkf3IARUVWutJYQnY3FYZN3W5iTguNlhjez1NklnlBGgYw%2F9ug%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR7Ls5o2CYg Good luck!

You should be able to find some that are even cheaper, this was just a quick search.

@@gregsmith_za Shot bud, will definetly look into it!! 👍

I got them from a local parts store but I'm sure you can find them online at Amazon or Ebay.

Thank you for your kind words. Appreciate it. I didn't have to add any gussets, there might be one or two but that's left over from the steel workbench I cut up to make the stand. But it doesn't hurt to add gussets or other bracing. If you're going to make one, change the angle from 65 degrees as I have it to around 80. It'll work better and have less load on the joint. Take care!

@@gregsmith_za Will do, thanks!

If I'm honest, I really can't remember why it worked, but it did (>_<). I also thought it would buzz when the hazards are on. Here's the website I got the info from. www.rattlebars.com/mtz/fourways.html Good luck!

Mine was an H11 bulb

That's correct

0:45 - But it depends on your specific bike

Sure, it's a Puig Rafale. I think the newer models look a bit different.

I used Castrol Actevo 10w-40 4 stroke oil

I believe it was 6013 but it was a while back.

Definitely more grip than without the pads, but it's not Velcro so you'll still have some movement. They're cheap so I reckon it's a low risk purchase even if they don't live up to your expectations. I'm quite happy with mine.

Eh, not 10k for the tools but I get the point. If I didn't already have the tools I wouldn't have bought them especially to make the stand. Definitely cheaper and easier just to go and buy a stand!

Thanks man! If you're going to make one I'd say change the angle to be a bit more vertical, say around 80 degrees. I don't see why you couldn't leave the bike parked like that, but I'd probably not do it over the long term. "IF" something happens then you'll find the bike on it's side. I only use the stand when I'm oiling the chain or working on the bike. The rest of the time it uses it's own side stand. Good luck!

@@gregsmith_za , thanks a lot for sharing your viewpoint. In fact, I'd make a paddock anyway. I really appriated your tutorial. The reason why I'd like to let it on a paddock is due to kids running around the garage of the building where I live. It's not allowed, but they access the garage and a couple of time I've seen they're involuntary tapping the bike. Then I got scared they drop the bike. This bike is heavy. Somebody can get hurt. I've talk to their parents, but kids are hard to control.

Awesome thanks Jules. Glad it helped

Hi Emil, it's one of these little guys(12v 5w KLE500-A1) www.motorcyclespareparts.eu/en/kawasaki-parts/920691016 Even though I'm not in Europe, I found this site has an excellent breakdown of the parts. www.motorcyclespareparts.eu/en/kawasaki-parts/motorcycles/er-6n

Hey Robert. They're still going strong actually! The adhesive along the bottom edge is starting to come a bit lose, suppose it's where there's the most movement but other than that they're great.

Greg Smith I just got a 2011 650r where did you buy these? I like them

@@robertp9370 I got mine on eBay. The're cheap. Not sure what currency you work in but I'd guess between $8 and $15. Just search ER6 Tank Pads and you should come right.

Thanks man, I appreciate it

Hey thanks man. You're exactly right, they're strip lights. Cheap ones from eBay actually. I disabled the brake lights in them and only use them for turn signals now. There are better ones out there but these still work fine after almost 2 years. www.ebay.com/itm/Hot-LED-Light-Strip-Tail-Trailer-Brake-Stop-Turn-Signal-48-3528-SMD-Plate/173872274004?epid=2304802369&hash=item287b985a54:g:tgMAAOSwVFJbxs5V

Oh I bought 2 of them and connected each of them up. If one is fitted horizontally it has a left and right signal. It'll make more sense if you see the picture.

Greg Smith thank you so much, I’m 100% going to do this. I also am in need of a nice phone mount/holder too.

@@bobjackson6496 I think I got my phone holder off of eBay or Banggood. It works fine even at high speed but I found that I hardly ever use it anymore. I think I only use it for when I use the gps on my phone, but I generally know where I'm going :-)

Hi Anthony. I'm not sure I follow 100%, Do you mean the swingarm spools? Or they're also called bobbins. 0:15. If you timestamp a part in the vid I could try help out better.

@@gregsmith_za yeah that alot

@@anthonywilson8366 Cool cool. I got mine off eBay. Just searched ER6N padock stand bobbins. Make sure you get one that fits your bike, the bolts are different diameters.

Hey man. Yeah you're right, I mentioned in some other comments that if I did it again I'd have made the angle closer to vertical, say around 80 degrees. Definitely didn't need to be that much. The flashing could've been me testing my tail tidy. I think I recorded those parts the same day. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJ_blqClo8mKlZo

Great thanks Moreno, glad it'll help. I got a bunch of subtle custom parts off of eBay for aesthetics, haven't changed mechanical components from standard yet. I got bar mirrors, paddock stand spolls/bobbins, rubber tank grip pads, shorty levers, tail tidy, led brake light with integrated turn signals. You have a lot of choices and they're all easy things to do. Go have fun shopping and fitting! If you have any issues let me know and I'll TRY and help where I can :)

Lol 😂

That's cheap, unfortunately no Harbor Freight in my country. Stands cost around 3 times the amount here.

@@gregsmith_za you can order them online and have it sent to your house

@@consciousobserver1514 import duties and shipping costs make them quite expensive. If they were the equivalent of $33 here I'd definitely have bought one. The prices have seemed to drop a bit since I made the video though

Thanks man!

Hi Marisa. Take a look at the link below, it shows a factory made stand the type of which I think you're referring to. www.amazon.co.uk/OXFORD-BLACK-MOTORCYCLE-PADDOCK-STAND/dp/B003BF69J2 If that is the case, then instead of cutting grooves for the bobbin pins (3:04) you'd just drill holes and fabricate a bolt with a cleat welded to the end (angle iron) for the square piece to rest in. I'd pad the angle iron with some thick rubber to protect the bike. Without knowing what bike you have or what the swing arm looks like I can't be 100% sure though.

The spark plugs were a pain in the ass. The rest is fine, just takes a bit of time.

Thanks!

Hi. It's the Puig Rafale. Not sure which country you're in so here's the manufacturers website: puig.tv/en/tuning-motos/carenabrises-universales-para-faros-no-redondos/windshield-rafale

Hey man. It's the Puig Rafale. I have the old model, I see the new one looks slightly different. Puig make a screen specifically for the ER6N but the Rafale is a bit bigger and looks a bit better in my opinion. They're super easy to fit, just get some foam and stick it to the screen where it goes over your instrument cluster otherwise it will scratch.

@@gregsmith_zaAwesome. Thanks for the info, and for the advice as well. I'll be sure to throw some foam on it. Much appreciated.

Hi Aedryk, I don't know actually but I'll see if I can find the old one. Here's a link to one I bought www.ebay.com/itm/Billet-M12x1-5mm-Magnetic-Oil-Drain-Plug-Bolts-For-Kawasaki-ZXR250-ZXR400-ZXR750-/182784288190?hash=item2a8ecae5be

@@gregsmith_za Thanks for the quick reply. I did some digging and im pretty sure its a M12 1.5 so thats what i ordered. cheers and safe riding mate!

@@aedryk Pleasure man. Yup, it's M12x1.5mm. Feeling silly because that exactly what the link I posted said >_< Keep safe bud!

Hi Michael. At 0:16, the line shown on top is the 12V + power. If you use the + cable that goes to your break light it makes the buzzer cut out when applying the break. Installation of the diodes are also important, they only let current flow in one direction.

Thanks Greg

The 12v supply in your diagram seems to indicate it's a negative not a positive rail, is that correct ?

@@michaelgiddens4376 OK, the diagram is as follows. Top line is brake light +. Line on left is left turn signal +. Line on right is right turn signal +. The piezo + is connected to the diodes, piezo - connected to brake +. There's an article that I got that I can send to you in pdf. The website was removed but I saved the pdf. I could send to you if you'd like?
