  • The Pardue Brothers have created many upgrade kits for the classic Honda Trail CT 90. This video is an installation and review on their LED headlight kit. One of the weak points of this cult classic Honda motorcycle is the headlight. A 6 volt sealed filament lightbulb that is known for its low lumens and power draining ability, but, a classy solid glass and steel Stanley casing. The Honda trail CT 90 motorcycle is the most produced vehicle in the world, with over 100 million made. I hope this video helps you with your installation and helps you in your choice of products to use on your trail 90. This installation is performed on a 1978 Honda Trail CT 90.

    Thanks for taking time to make a video about your experience with the Pardue Brothers LED headlight conversion kit. Quite a challenge to engineer something worthy of being called an upgrade to a Honda.

    My hack. Installing the light in the base before gluing it down makes it much easier to align when adhering it to the back of the globe.

    Fantastic video super helpful wish you made it before I did mine 😑 I kind of messed up my Stanley trying to cut it but mine is a k0. the the diamond cutter does not fit over the metal like yours I really needed to cut the lips off of the light first with a cutter then cut through the back of bulb. Mine had the removable bulb so maybe it wasn't original? Anyway you did a great video. I love my Pardue lights and feels so much safer riding at night. It was pretty sketchy when I would hit my break and suddenly the already dim headlight would almost disappear. Now I have the LED tail light brake light and dash lights and LED headlight And I hit the brake and no dimming and no problem. Pardue's for the win. 👍

    this kit should fit other 6 volt honda models that have the same headlight such as my xl250

      You are correct, it fits - and we have a more compact LED mounting ring now for smaller headlight buckets.

    Outstanding instruction! Thank you. Do you have a link to this product as I have three CT 90s and would like to convert all of them (72, 78, 78) ?

    Instead of all that guessing and "practicing" to line up the bulb holder with the hole in the reflector, couldn't you simply mount the LED in the holder with the thumbscrew FIRST, and then just slide it right in and stick it on?? 😕
    Or am I missing something here.. 🤦🏻
