2 part project...
Put a HID conversion kit on.
Hi beam in a 60 watt halogen light
Lo beam is HID, boy is it bright.
Lo is brighter than high beam, coverage is just less.
Makes a bright spot as wide as a lane.
right now I think I have it aimed down a bit,
got to look into what the correct aim should be.
Let's see how long it lasts.
Part 2, new headlight bucket
I've been working on getting an '83 GR650 front end installed for awhile. And with the new bulb to install, I decided now would be a good time to try out the bucket. BTW the bucket is metal
The gr bucket is a side mount and the mounts for it slide onto the forks from the top. The gr is about the same width as the savage, but the headlight came from a gs, so it's a little narrower. No problem, I have a bracket stretching tool (prybar) aside from straightening it abit from prior abuse, it fits
A little loose from top to bottom, but it ain't goin nowhere. Oh and the gs/gr forks are a little smaller in diameter so I took the rubber grommets off and replaced them with rubber from an inner tube. just wrapped each eyelet and forced it on over the fork.
Well that's what I do on a rainy Sunday.
