Dude... you are the man!! Thank you so much for mentioning "yellow and white" at the 3 minute mark. I thought I was screwed since I didn't have 2 yellows. You are a gentlemen and a scholar sir.
Man, this is the first video that I’ve seen I’ve watched hundreds of them by now you simplified it on how to hook up the two yellow wires now my battery charges and I can get 12 V to the lights thank you sir. 🍻
Going through the comments there’s been a lot of people (mostly seems to be the 140cc motors from what I’m reading) that are having dimming issues with this set up. To get around this, I used the same wiring from the rectifier to wire in a 12v rc car battery, then simply run your power from the battery to your switch and lights. Definitely has been an awesome upgrade to have a headlight on my pit bike. Thank you for the simplification in this video. A lot of the reading I did online was vague and confusing until I saw you do it
@adamsquires1775 Have you got a link to the rc battery you used? Or could you point me in the right direction? Does it have to be a 4 wire battery and what size? I’m having problems with light flashing/flickering when at idle/low rpm using the same wiring as in this video.
Quite dangerous, the regulator does work somewhat but ive seen +25V coming through the regulator (up to 80V ac at the stator), it might have been a cheap regulator because it lets peaks and transients through, this is how i blew an led, adding a battery/ capacitor as a buffer will solve the problem
@@PatrickLayze I've successfully installed a light on my bike already. The only issue i have is it being dim at idle and bright when throttle is on. Is there a way to fix it with a lower watt light or a compacitor. Everything i read online says its only possible with a battery or a ac current light setup
I'm having the same issue with the dimming and throttle, but have a rectifier in place. Can it be due to the light being 36W, I notice these smaller bars are only 18W.
@@comox_valley_gsxr I have a 18w 6" led bar with a rectifier. I may sound dumb but will it not be low beam at idle and higher beam when the throttle is on? And will it flicker?:
Top notch shed life hack fella ! Ps the led flicker and the shutter speed are out of synchronization thats the double slit effect and quantum physics right before your eyes
Great video very helpful I ordered a ssr it’s on it’s way right now I know I’ll need a light for it this is a very affordable way to have a light thanks for your help! :)
Update - some cheap regulators may fry the led's due to leaking spikes/transients, to avoid this, add a 12v battery as a buffer( any type e.g. SLA nimh nicd etc) If this doesnt work for you(dim/no light)... try connecting only one of the wires to the regulator, and ground the other ac side on the regulator to the frame, at first i followed this tutorial but turned out wrong for some stators, (i chose white wire, a bit brighter than yellow), now easily powers a 55w halogen full brightness on idle, so in the end you should have the regulator connected to one wire and a spare left floating, for testing purposes skip the regulator and use a cheap disposable halogen bulb to check your stator. if you want to stop flicker, add a cap or better yet a battery
@motor express Sold the pitbike, i didn't make a video of the whole setup as i didn't have a regulator and cba at the time, i only have a video of lighting a halogen h4 with just the stator itself, thats why it gets much brighter when revved. if you got any questions just ask.
So I'm getting a capacitor this week to put into it and hopefully It won't fry any bulbs or wires and have issues down the road. But it flickers at idle will get brighter with higher rpm. But if I'm cruising it'll stay bright then dim then once I down the rpm it'll get bright again 🤷 but I will let you guys know this week when it's all done and set up and when I ride to test it. But Is there a way not to blow a bulb? Will the capacitor help with that?
and if I have a battery that I want to run in line so i can use my light without starting the bike? does the hot to the headlight just run to the battery first. Then a lead to the toggle then to the headlight?
Hi mate I’ve just done this to my pit bike as I had a little light bar but it’s a 30w and the light comes on as the revs raise. So just wondering what watt and volt light you used. Cheers buddy
So is a Rectifier needed or is that just to make it not flicker and get brighter as you throttle up? Is it possible to just hook up a light and switch?
Hey man ive been watchin your vid i got my son a egl pit bike its a 125 has the two yellow wires u show on urs i got a cheap amazon regulator rectifier & wired it up the way urs is but mine flickers at idle & at higher rpms it goes out comepletly its one of the lil 6” led light bars kinda wht u got but mounts on the handle bars any help would be great
My only question is where are those 2 yellow wires comming off of to be able to use those on the lights ...im kinda knew to bikes but I got every thing I need ...just wanting to know what are those yellow wires leading from .speciffically
Dude I can't tell you how confused I was when I started hearing edge of the earth blasting through my phone. I thought I had hit my music player or clicked a lyric video or something. Easily one of my Top 10 favorites songs from any band.
My sons light won't work with a rectifier but when I wire it up with out rectifier it works but then shuts off. His bike is a 2022 ssr110. It has a pink and a yellow wire not being used but then also has a connector you can plug into with a green and a black and yellow wire. Any help or tips would be great.
is that key on power or constant... does it shut off when you turn key off? Im going to have to see what my crf110 has ... it DOES have a little 3 prong connector, I have not traced it to see what it actually is.
So can you skip the rectifier and the light switch and just run the light streight on the two unused yellow wires so it will always be on when the engine is running? Am I understanding this correctly the light will be weak on idle but will go brighter with engine revs without the rectifier.
By the way I looked at the wattage On the light you purchased it’s not 18 W it was 36 W so the light that I have purchased that was 18 W I have to return because they shorted out. Just purchased 36 W LED light bar that’s waterproof so hopefully it to work
I know this is a older video not sure if anyone still reads the comments. But great video man, I have a ssr 110, with a extra yellow and pink wire.ordered everything from ypur description box. Ran everything like you said bit isn't working. Maybe my bike can't have a headlight or something
Bam Bino hey man, sorry to hear it isn't working. But it definitely should. Just go back over everything. Make sure all the wires are connected to the right ones. Make sure you are using thick enough gauge wire. And also, sometimes those headlights are cheap and blow really really easy. Also, the only time the light will come on is while the bike is running.
Is the rectifier something you added or relocation? And do you have to add one? Or can you skip that? And wire into existing wiring and leave it running as long as engine is on? Off when killed right?
I did this on my Apollo RFZ It comes stock with a 3 wire stator so I put in an upgraded 5 wire stator but anyway I tried using a GY6 rectifier and I couldn't get more than 3v out of it once it was hooked up so the light wouldn't work idk if it is the rectifier or the stator but if you have any pointers I'd take them.
so if you do want a battery do the same thing but connecting to the battery and then battery to rectifier then rectifier to how ever many lights you want?
Update. I bought a voltage regulator for a 200cc and it’s for my kids 50cc. I wired everything and it was only barely lighting up the light bar. I think it’s because the regulator is too big and it’s “over regulating”
@@joshualong5696 If this doesnt work for you(dim/no light)... try connecting only one of the wires to the regulator, and ground the other ac side on the regulator to the frame, at first i followed this tutorial but turned out wrong for some stators, (i chose white wire, a bit brighter than yellow), now easily powers a 55w halogen full brightness on idle, so in the end you should have the regulator connected to one wire and a spare left floating, for testing purposes skip the regulator and use a cheap disposable halogen bulb to check your stator. if you want to stop flicker, add a cap or better yet a battery
Hey man so I did the same thing but i just put the positive and negative wire into the harness it was bright for 2 secs then went very dim still light but not bright at all

Hmm, I bought the same stuff. My coolster 125cc 2017 has 2 spare wires. A yellow/white. Connected those to the yellow and pink input on the rectifier, grounded the green. And my red wire is putting out -3v... hmm. Pretty frustrating, it’s only 4 wires and I can’t figure out why it’s not working
Poorsupra same mate I’ve got atomic 120cc soon as I connect regulator to bike it dies even if nothing connected to the 12v output on regulator so frustrating can’t figure it out

Have u anytime measured the output voltage coming from rectifier on positive wire. With load and without load what is the output voltage

Cheers mate, your directions were spot on, mines flashy at low revs. wont be idling much though chur
i did it exactly and it gets brighter as is revs up
Battery might be closer to the weak side of its life?
Volumes is my fav band! definitely gonna try this on my bike tho
Lee Thompson great band! Hope you had success with the light.

Explained it well enough
What if you don’t haven’t 2 wires? I have just one a green and pink! Or do I just tap into the 2 yellow wires I have an Apollo 125!

no
Did everything but bike doesn’t want to start afterwards. Let me know if there’s anything I can do.
Great job
Have a up dated link to the the voltage regulator? Or the voltage rating it’s putting out? The supplied eBay link not available now..
thanks!
Quick question do all led bars have the same wires cause ive been looking no store shows what wires there are.
Hey i have a question why does the light flicker when riding
because you engine gives the elecrtocity to the ligh if you idle or have low rpm it may flicker

So the rectifier grounds its self through the chassis?
Only get 3 v DC at idle have 7 v AC at idle
The most I get is 11v DC from the regulator when on the gas. Any suggestions?
Great video now I know. Have you done any mods to the air breather? I just do not like that cheap foam crap it comes with.
