    I just bought my vaquero in April. I first bought the speaker adapters as soon as I got the bike. Now I just received my headlight and driving lights adapters. So easy to install and the new lights make all the difference. Thanks guys! Scott, Ontario Canada.

    Purchased your aux light kit last week and that was a breeze. I was working on trying to fabricate my own bracket, but you beat me to it. So I decided I’d just get the whole list of upgrades and do everything else at once. Thanks for doing such great work.

  • @Rapheal.De.La.Ghetto
    @Rapheal.De.La.Ghetto Před 9 měsíci +1

    Is this process brighter or better than installing LED bulbs in the existing housing?

    • @EngineeredAdapters
      @EngineeredAdapters  Před 9 měsíci +1

      LED bulbs offer a huge improvement over factory halogen bulbs with much higher lumens and a higher kelvin scale (whiter light) improving your nighttime vision and daylight visibility. The cost of that, however, is that there's no control of the beams as the parabolic shape of the headlight reflector scatters that LED bulb in all directions. Why do we care about that if it helps us see? Because our goal is not only having better nighttime vision to see further down the road and to see items being well-lit, but we also want to be seen by other motorists. The scattering of the light causes glare to oncoming drivers which is, at best, annoying to those drivers. In addition, however, it is dangerous because the glare can cause drivers to lose vision and can be deadly if it causes them to veer out of their lane at all. Full LED headlights are engineered to have better control of the beam, including the critical horizontal cut-off line meant to keep the brightest part of the beam far up the road for us, as riders, but low enough to help reduce or eliminate the glare to oncoming drivers. From a purely aesthetic standpoint, they really improve and modernize the look of the bike! Great question!!

    Hey randy! I have a 2005 Kawasaki Vulcan vn2000 the 2004 also came out with that big fixed to fork bucket .
    Is there any bracket for a led light?

    • @EngineeredAdapters
      @EngineeredAdapters  Před 3 lety

      There are a few different models of the 2000cc Vulcan - the Beast (wish they put that motor in the Voyager!). If you have the "big nacelle" style then I'm not aware of any that fit. If you have the 2000 Classic or 2000 Classic LT it should have the "bucket" style.
