Hey buddy hope your well. Builds looking good 🖒

[@markkus1134]

On the rear fender I have the same bike you can make the stock light a brake running light by soldering another wire to the bulb socket I left the stock light in and just added the same tail light you have.

[@dave88face]

Next video should do a trail tech I have an xr 250r 2001 and I am going to pull a trail tech on my bike and new headlight just got a tusk battery the other day love the videos keep em coming

[@Johnnysshop]

Oddly enough I have a Trail Tech video coming!

[@obsmotorsports9833]

I notice this was 5 years ago, still got the bike? I have the same year and model. Really looking to see what else people have done

[@unclequack5445]

I installed a switch and a socket for an 1157 type bulb and utilized the stock tail light then added a tag bracket with built in light and blinkers bam Done...…..

This is a good review of the "Tusk Motorcycle Enduro Lighting Kit with Handguard Turn Signals." A google search found it on ebay, and it is designed for the XR600 and XR650R. Maybe that is why it is not a good fit. Thanks for letting me know that the hand guards are not good enough.

[@Johnnysshop]

The 250, 400 and 650 use the same rear fender actually. Thanks for watching!

[@walterconn5637]

Does mixing and matching parts from different light kits raise the difficulty level? Iam thinking about buying the tusk battery and turn signal switch. Then I might get the acerbis brake light for angled rear fender, and a headlight like the one that you have. I have turn signals and a horn from the previous owner.

[@Johnnysshop]

No, it's pretty easy actually. Luckily this bike included everything but it I was purchasing I would just get the wire harness, battery and switch.

[@ryu1014]

Does the stock rear fender also fit on xr200r ??

[@unclequack5445]

I made my 99 XR 250 street legal, your gonna find yourself needing more power if you ever go on the high way.

[@evileye47]

Which wires did you connect ?

[@pablocesarvelezmadrid1382]

great video and amazing motorcycle, Now I am build one 95, I would like to know if possible add battery to the lights system, thanks

[@Johnnysshop]

Yes, I have a lithium.

[@HondaXRseries]

Can that battery be charged by the stator ?

[@WILLY52368]

Anyone know where to get a rear mounting brake, turn, license plate mounting bracket that will work for a MX Style Maeir rear fender? The ones I did find that I thought would work were way to small for my application. It looked big in the pics but when it actually arrived it looked like it was made for a tricycle, worst of all it was Acerbis and it cost me $49, I could have gotten the same one for $18 dollars if I knew it was going to so small. Looks are deceiving and its hard order parts not knowing what you getting until it actually arrives. It looks like the same one I bought in the past but only difference is its way too small for. I am looking for one that's the size of the Tusk Universal Light that's made for a 2014 XR650L, any help would be greatly appreciated

[@Chris-sq8yv]

Please let me know where I can buy that rear fender for 40$, thanks and cheers. Great instructional clips!

[@WheelsNThangs]

I responding to you from my other account. It's much cheaper right now. Thanks for watching! www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/1023/216/Acerbis-Rear-Fender?s=10272

[@richie9777]

Why don't you just fit the factory rear light?

[@Johnnysshop]

I purchased the bike used and it did not have the factory light, only this one.

[@zacharywatters1843]

Would it not be easier to take advantage of the factory tail light?.. I would not waste the money on aftermarket tail light but it's your bike.

[@Johnnysshop]

Well I don't have the stock light and the aftermarket tail came with the bike.

[@TheDusty2008]

Do you have a high and low beam how did u set that up need help

[@Johnnysshop]

I do but haven’t really set it up yet.

[@sickgreeks]

How do you keep the battery charged without the actual charger it self?

[@Johnnysshop]

I just charge it a few times a year.

[@markkus1134]

The bike does not Actually require a battery so it can be completely discharged then start bike and it will recharge

[@valhala56]

What are you?
