    Man we've been trying to figure out why headlight bulb won't turn on with the tusk lighting kit. Everything works, blinkers, horn, tailight, but not the low or high headlight. Can you shed some insight. Its been installed on a 2012 wr450f yamaha dirtbike. Thanks any feedback appreciated.

    • @desertspeed2934
      @desertspeed2934 Před 11 měsíci

      The three wires on the control switch do NOT go to the three spades on the headlight. The black wire goes to the + terminal of the battery (or the red wire on the front brake switch). The white wire goes to the low beam (top) headlight spade. The blue wire goes to the high beam (left) headlight spade. Lastly you need to get a spare wire and a spade terminal female connector and connect the last spade on the headlight to the - terminal on the battery or the chassis for ground.

    • @desertspeed2934
      @desertspeed2934 Před rokem

      Yes. The two wire kill switch is connect-to-kill. So the green and black+white key wires connect in parallel to the factory kill switch wires, then you can use the black and red key wires however you want. Most people power a battery headlight or a street legal kit with it. Ideally it replaces the on/off toggle that comes with most street legal kits.

    Hey desert speed, im 15 and just bought a street legal plated/titled everything 2000 xr650r. Hotcams stage 1, oversize radiators, more goodies to list, holes drilled in the swingarm and the clutch bushing or bearing whatever went out on the 2000 650rs is updated with the newer revised model. Is there any other reliability mods I could do to the bike to prepare it for longerish trips on the highway? I have it running 14/45 which is pretty tall as it will hardly do a 2nd gear power wheelie. (partly due to the crap throttle response from the stock carb)

    • @desertspeed2934
      @desertspeed2934 Před 2 lety

      No hot cams. There are clearance and reliability issues. Been there done that. Take the stock cam, remove the anti-kick and auto decompress and weld the two oil holes under them shut. Then take and drill some oil holes with a 1/8 or 3/16 bit Into the clutch hub assembly. Generally copy the pattern of the existing oil holes all around being careful to stagger them so the hub doesn't break. Buy the right foot peg reinforcement from precision concepts. Oversized tank is a plus. 3.2 to 4 gal. Avoid drilling into structural components like swingarms. Get 20% stiffer springs for your clutch, or 10% with added 1/16" spring shims. Remove the thermostat from the hose housing. Run your valves at 0.005" and 0.006". 68 pilot jet at 5/8 turn should loose the bog. Ditch the recovery bottle and use evans powersport coolant. Other than that make sure your maintenance is kept up and your wheels are centered on plane.

    • @desertspeed2934

      Red front brake stitch wire --> black control switch wire. Then blue/white control switch wires tied together --> red headlight wire. Then black headlight wire to ground. If it's the AC headlight you need to tap both wires into the same two (probably yellow) wires that come from the bike and plug into your rectifier to change the battery. Then the headlight will come on when the bike is running. If you want to do that same thing but through the switch you'll need to tap into one of the yellow bike wires --> black control switch wire, then tie the blue/white control switch wires together and --> one headlight wire, other headlight wire --> the remaining yellow bike wire at the uptrend side of the rectifier.
