Honda Elite 250 LED headlight upgrade and temp gauge quick fix | Ruby the Elite

[@RD-xh9ss]

Man that was a big help. Today I fired up my elite 250. Found out no headlight. Drove around with the high beam, 10 mins later, it failed. So now ill be using your LED suggestion. Thank you for that. Keep up the good work. New Subscriber 👍👊

Hello Elite 250 family, I got my 1986 Honda Elite 250 up to 64mph today (Feb 2024) and I weigh 300 lbs.

Here is the link to the bulb I used. It's currently $25. www.ebay.com/itm/124186409436?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=2uDH_ha-Qey&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=AxnBL3O_Rk2&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Have you considered installing a headlight modulator for daytime safety? I don't know if they work with LED bulbs. Also did you forget to post the link? Or have I gone blind, again?

[@rubytheelite]

I just now posted it. You were a bit quicker than I was...lol

[@marcinszuba5637]

Can you please do a video on the cooling system on the elite 250. I just picked up a 1988 250 and the rad fan is rigged to be constantly on😢

[@rubytheelite]

There is nothing wrong with my cooling system. I don't take things apart just to make videos.

[@gbowman5587]

The link no longer works. Can you post the name and model number of the LED light kit.

[@rubytheelite]

It's a 9003 H4 bulb

Hey! Literally just bought a red ‘84 150cc.. but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to turn the headlights off. I know it sounds stupid but I can only go back and forth between lows and brights. I don’t wanna be too finicky with it due to age and all. Is there anything I’m missing or do I just have a faulty light that never turns off 😂

[@user-fm3uv2le9n]

Thanks in advance if you get back to me!

[@rubytheelite]

The headlight is always on when you turn on the scooter. You can't turn it off.

[@user-fm3uv2le9n]

@@rubytheelite yea, did a little bit more research and now I feel stupid ;) thanks anyways man! I will definitely be keeping up with the channel. I know it’s a lot to ask but if you ever make a “maintenance and maintaining” video I’d watch it in a heartbeat, not too much info online about these spacys

[@archaiccraft5247]

Do you think this will fit into a 85 Elite with the pop up headlight?

[@rubytheelite]

Watch my other videos. I use the same headlight in multiple scooters including what you have.

[@thebear6529]

pop up head light? you must be big time !

[@mikegilbert5434]

I avoid ebay as Ive been scammed too many times there but this bulb does not seem to exist anywhere on the internet except Ebay. That seems worrisome to me.

[@rubytheelite]

I've used Ebay for years. It can be unreliable at times but if you have an old scooter it's a must have resource. As far as the Chinese bulb...It's actually in 4 of my bikes working fine in all of them.

[@thebear6529]

oh come on now stop lying.if ever something happens, they refund your money.
