Hi Andrew,my friend was looking for some Aux lights for his Yam T700 so I shared you're vid with him.He recently fitted them and is very pleased with the result so Thanks.I understand that there were some bolts missing in the package on delivery but after a few emails it all got sorted with no problem so all good 👍 Richard
A very handy film to add to my reference videos, I hadn't heard of this brand before, they seems to offer xclnt performance and very reasonably priced! Cheers and thanks for sharing. I'm sixty this year and have noticed very similar changes to my eyesight.
Great video. thank you!! Got my lights last week and used your code. what a deal ! Not sure from your video but did you take of the side panels/fairings to run the wires?
Excellent, they are holding up well for me and great deal…I took the lower side panels off but not the upper fairing panels (ie tank ones) as managed to feed through 👍🏻
Yes, that’s very much how I used them for better driver awareness of the bike…I don’t actually ride much in the dark but if you do boy are these good 👍🏻
Quite a difference. Would you consider it a faff to have to use a 2nd switch to turn them off, considering they can't really be left on when meeting oncoming traffic?
Yes, to a degree I’m thinking more remote country roads are where they’ll be best used but also a different pair could be wired to main beam so on off with high/low switch! I’ll see how things go but the fog lights will be useful on these ones 👍🏻
I've bought a pair of these but not fitted them yet. Looks like you have no option but to use the handlebar switch to turn them on. Pity they can't come on with the chosen beam pattern just wired into the ignition.
Hi, Im thinking of getting these lights and a auxiliary fusebox. When connecting to a auxillary fusebox, do you still have to connect the switched live wire? Surely the fusebox is connected to a switched live.
No, I also use an auxiliary box (called fuze box) which is switchable live or switched, and I have the wires connected here on switched so goes out when I switch off.. the fuze box is connected to live
Hi thinking of fitting these lights to my 590x. Can you tell me is it a U.K. supplier ? If not and it’s a USA based company is their an import tax you are aware of. Hope you can help ?
@@johnwebb6489 well, it’s a difficult one to get to the bottom of, I think they’re a US registered company but suspect with a Chinese factory/ownership, but however they come there’s no import tax so price you see is price you pay
Find a switched cable (ie anything like lights) and attach into that or if you have switched accessory plugs, like my Honda CB500x, that’s even better as you can just plug it in.
Find a switched fuse (ie lights) and just fit it to that. Many bikes have switched accessory sockets…check with your bike first. Obviously the positive and negative just go to battery
@@Alexmit-f7y I’ve previously cut into a switched wire (lights) for other fittings but need soldering iron and a little confidence you’ve got the right wire….good luck 👍🏻
There are a couple of accessory sockets on the 500x, one behind the left upper body panel (roughly left indicator area) and one under the seat, these designed to wire pos/neg accessory cable so it’s always off if ignition switched off and the green would just go with positive cable in this case. You would need to buy the little plugs to make it work and you can also get a splitter cable to have capability to plug two separate accessories in! I’ll put link in below.. Or, just tap the green wire into a a switched cable (ie anything like lights) with pos/neg to battery. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/296197485672?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=rahn-izvr1u&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=MKjvCP0rTiS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Yes, should be fine.. they’ll only take power when ignition on and as long as you haven’t got lots of other additional electrical accessories it won’t be a problem.

Thanks for the feedback, good to know it was useful info

I’ve got them properly adjusted now and what a difference in the dark… yes, eyesight degrading sucks as does aches and pains 😂
Thanks for the prompt reply, appreciated 👍🏻 Like yourself, I'm a daytime rider so that is what I'd be using them for. Thanks again 👍🏻
No problem Colin…I try not to ride at night if I can help it, age and eyesight don’t help but with these lights it’s honestly like daylight 😀
Great little review Andy 👍🏻, nicely done.
Thank you 🙏

thank you. I also got the crash bars and bashplate same as you. very helpful. thank you again.@@thecampingbiker791
Can these be left on during the day without dazzling oncoming drivers? Thanks in advance 😃

Yes, these have to use the provided switch because of functionality of the different options…found it worked quite well mounted where I did mine.
Nice one ✊

If we have not got a fuze box where does the green cable go..?
Find a switched cable (ie anything like lights) and attach into that or if you have switched accessory plugs, like my Honda CB500x, that’s even better as you can just plug it in.
Hi, can you explain where is "switch power point" on the bike? Where the green cable would be connected? I have no FuzeBox.
Thank you

Thank you for your reply. Will look for it in the schema.

Where did u put the green wire. I have the same bike and just ordered this very kit. Pls

Will theses work on Honda cb125f or will there drain to much battery
Yes, should be fine.. they’ll only take power when ignition on and as long as you haven’t got lots of other additional electrical accessories it won’t be a problem.
@@thecampingbiker791 thanks for reply would I be able to connect theses to a healtech thunderbox any hip would be great
But of course flashing lights aren’t legal to use on our roads. Unless licensed to do so…
Yep, I won’t be using the flashing bit again YourHonour… I promise 😆 👍🏻
