Lady Devil has fun working on the bike. If you want to watch another, here she is putting on her own highway pegs czcams.com/video/WwYQyI9qrwc/video.html
Yep, that is another great hands on MrsBlacktopDevil vid... wait that might be taken the wrong way, but ya know what Iâm sayin. Wink, wink
I love it ,you guys ride together and work together, drink together...awesome ..oh and the new headlight is really bright
Mrs.BlacktopDevil great job on the installation of the headlights. BlacktopDevil Thatâs going to make a World of difference on the Highway at night.
Great job putting in the lights Mrs. Devil! They look great!
I was watching the beginning and the whole time I was thinking âBlacktop cover your fenderâ and then it happened, it happens, good video
To be fair it's pretty bad already from a poorly mounted gopro angle in 2016 lol
Thanks Guys! Good to see you. Getting closer to riding!
Sylvania has good affordable LED bulbs for the turn signals. Great seeing you two having fun. time for a beer. Cheers
Don't worry Heather..... "Every tool's a hammer" and around my shop, they also double as spacers, wedges, prybars, and projectiles.
Mostly projectiles đ
Lights are great! Good to see you two. Waiting for snow to melt.
Love your videos guys! Good to see you both!
New lights look great and good job Heather.
Really enjoyed watching you two doing this video. Those new light looked like they should've melted the snow out front.
Shes fun to work with most days haha. Thanks for watching Corey
I subscribed JUST because she dropped something on the fenderâŠafter saying âIâm not gonna drop anything on the fender!â đâ€
Sometimes I just have to shake my head. Lol. Appreciate the sub! đđ»
I can finally watch CZcams again great internet now. Got to catch with you
New lights look great!! Top notch install Heather!
Ron here, wow what a difference!! You really got it goin on with the lights. Nice choice!
Good Job Heather đ
Looks Great.
Good to see yâall again!đ€âïž
Good to see you guys!
Hi guys!
Good to see you both and you/we are almost through winter and Spring is looming. Which means we can all go back on our motorcycles. Yippee!!! Keep well and look forward to seeing you back on your bike.... It was only yesterday when I got riding again since Christmas...just a journey to the shops however because we are in full lockdown in the UK still....bummer...
Keep well and bye for now Stuart đđŹđ§
I hope for your sake the UK opens up soon!
Great installation video guys! It's always fun to watch you two! I had to laugh at the part about "don't drop it on the fender..." haha
I think she did it on purpose! đ
Good to see you both! Been missing you guys
A Subie, a Dyna and a Bagger....looks like my garage!! :) I am surprised you haven't upgraded your lamps sooner!
Great install video you two!
I'm frugal đ
Need to see more Mrs. BTD installs :)
Another great video. Good too see mrsblacktopdevil.
Been waiting for a new video from you guys thanks for the new video canât wait for it to warm up to ride
Great job Heather. đ
I agree that it looks so much better. You guys make great videos. THX for sharing !!!
Lights look awesome! Way better than stock. Hope the snow melts soon so you get out and give them a proper test. đ
It's wow that this video is coming out , because i have a set on the way in the mail, will be here tomorrow. đđ€
Great video guys and always nice to see ladies work đđ€Ł
That made a big difference! I like it!
Glad I stayed till the end. The bloopers are the best part. Not a lot going on in East TN either between snow, rain and cold enough to freeze your gonaadies off. Not much riding getting done. Just a few more weeks and we can get out and about. Can't wait!! Be good and be safe!!
After putting LED lights in my ultra classic I canât believe I drove it so many miles with the original lights!!! Drastic difference, you will love them!!!!
I also have my passing lights wired to stay on during low and high beam that also makes a huge difference!!!
Excellent service and thank you
They look awesome
Nice head light! I replaced my standard 09 OEM headlight with a Day Maker. Did not at all like the Harley bracket design. Good job Heather!
Enjoy yalls videos..
Really fun watching you both work on the bike! Thanks for the new video! It was well worth the wait!!! Warm breezes on you both!
Thank you Will! Riding season is getting closer!
Those do look sweet! May have to upgrade mine too soon. I fully understand about those dark night's on the plains. Our Black Night Sky Map is pretty dope, especially up north & west of you too.
They look awesome guys, great upgrade đđ€đ»
Great Job !
Great video, good job
Definitely a good looking upgrade
really enjoy when you both are involved. the bloopers are a nice bonus! keep up the good work and the bike is looking really good.
Thanks! I don't put a ton of money into extras so it has taken some time. I just like to ride it đ
Heather! You are so handy with a screwdriver! And not the vodka/orange juice kind - I'm so impressed!
Very nice install, good job Heather! Darn winter, Iâm counting every melting drop of snow until spring, good for you getting the upgrades done in the meantime.
Spring cannot come soon enough lol
After a half assed blizzard and -10 degree temps and state road crews locating 3 semis and 2 cars in the 12 mile section of state road 26 in the drifts, we had the best laugh of the last 2 weeks watching the modern day version of Laruel and hardy, you have done your good deed of the day, great video!!!!
Haha perfect, thanks!
looks great awesome job, hello from Niagara falls Ont area Canada
Thatâs cool looks pretty easy.
Nice video guys
Best video on this subject. Thanks y'all !!
Glad it helped! Thanks for checking it out đđ»
I changed my stock ones for LED what a difference You will love the new lights. Lady Devil did a great job for the record I have dropped a screw on my fender as well lol.
LED lighting is so pricey, but after one ride at night out in backwoods country.... SO worth it! Glad you guys did the a light upgrade too! đđŒ
Just back from a ride into Jasper Ga, but I am glad to see Heather is doing ok, and you too.
Jealous you're getting to ride. Hope you enjoyed it!
I've been considering the Vision X for my StreetGlide. My son the Master Tech leans more towards Custom Dynamics LED. Either way LED's are the way to ho...see better and be seen better!!
Great to see Heather's big bright smile!!
I had CD turn signals on my old bike and have some on my Street Bob as well. Ciro is always my first choice though. Great people there.
@@LifeontheBlacktop I'm liking quite a few of Ciro's products. I stopped by their booth in Sturgis 2018. Good and knowledgeable people!
Looks good!
âI know this is a wrenchâ. Hilarious,đ
Great video, lady devil did a good job with the lightâs installment đ. The lighting difference is amazing , not sure if you had a chance to do some night riding yet due to the Nebraska winter, if so please follow up with post light debrief.
Thanks and ride safe my friends.
Wahooo!! Good to see you both! :)
â€ïžâ€ïž
Nice teamwork guys!
When I did my LED conversion in 2015, I had to get a new mounting bracket for the headlight. As usual it didn't work out of the box but I got it sorted out lol
Now you just gotta do something about the pancakes. I recommend custom dynamics inserts with clear lenses. Looks really cool.
Great video and very well explained. I have an 08 Ultra Classic and this is gonna be my first upgrade very soon, I am pretty sure I can do it. The wiring diagram looks the same as mine. Again great video!! Got a new sub!
this was fun thanks so much for sharing this with us. đNonnaGrace
Sheâs excellent help!!
check out the custom dynamics for turn signal in front i installed the white running light and amber turning signal bright as heck (probeam)
Hats off to Ciro for making the headlight fit without changing the bucket. LED lights make a huge difference. Canât wait till you ride it the first time at night! I think you did a good job Heather.
Yeah it was a super easy install. Looked like it anyway đ kind of nice having her do the work.
@@LifeontheBlacktop always more fun to watch a blond work lol. They make an adapter to have your passing lights stay on when you turn on your brights. Unless your bike is new enough then they just have to go in the computer and tell them to stay on.
I saw that. Gotta let my bank account catch up again lol.
@@LifeontheBlacktop I know that feeling.
The Mrs is back! Final worth watching again. Just messing with ya. Good to see the both of you. Next video, Touching up Fender Scratches with the Mrs!
Lol!
Nice snd really informative video , what I want to know whereâs do you get the front batwing đ skull stickerâs please
We don't currently have those for sale unfortunately!
Looks good and will be a lot better at night i have mine set up for the passing lights stay on with the high beam good video
I may end up getting that harness but we don't ride at night very often. Is it pretty noticeable?
Yes I think so and I donât ride that much at night but when I do itâs nice
Looking good guys and girls
Cool video! Thanks for sharing!
Hey thanks for stopping by! Maybe soon we can do a motorcycle/real estate collab of some sort haha.
@@LifeontheBlacktop that would be awesome! đ
Go Big Red
Great tutorial, anyway do head lamp fuse need to be changed if put auxiliary lights?
Excellent upgrade đ I recently did mine and also included the turn signals front and rear. They brighten up the back of the bike. Hello đ Mrs Blacktop Devil đ you did great đ maybe you should wear a pair of light weight work gloves so you don't chip a nail đ â€. See ya guys đ
đ€ I'll definitely get gloves next time!
looks much better
well now..... now that you have Lady Devil trained on how to do installs...need to teach her how to do the next oil change... "only one hole to worry about shoving things in"..(lol)... good to see a new video.....good to see ya'll survived the cold snap down there...still dealing with it a bit up her in New England....... ya'll stay safe
I may just have her do ALL of the work from now on lol
@@LifeontheBlacktop ..... ooooohhh boy... whats the trade off....theres always a trade off...... lol
Thank you for making these videos. I have now seen an video from a few years back. (Your first vlog as I understand it)- And now this one. I liked this one too. Seems like you're having fun making the videos, which makes it fun to watch. See you guys have a lot more videos out there, so I envision that I will start looking at some of your stuff. And yes - I Have of course subscribed. Good luck on the way to 10,000 subscribers, there should definitely be a basis for that.
Awesome, thank you for subscribing, we really appreciate it! I think we just passed 125 uploads and we are definitely having a lot of fun. It's been a little slow lately with the sub 0 temperatures and snow but I have a feeling this spring and summer are going to be a lot of fun for us personally. We love to do travel vlogs here so if you're interested, check some of those playlists out. Welcome aboard :)
@@LifeontheBlacktop Thanks, got my better half on board too. She likes you too, so now we can giggle and recognize ourselves a little in you. great fun!
Now get the ciro LED turn signals which is a white running light and the amber turn signals..then you'll have completely white front end
I like the way you think!
Inspired to upgrade my street glide headlight.
Thank you for the video! Heather has some mechanical potential.
I think so too!
They look a 100 times better than the stock lights, ok now you need to repaint the fender, just kidding Heather lol đ€Łđ€Ł, great install guys đđŒđŻ
Hey glad to see the video loved it.
I know ya all have been wishing the weather would warm up also but hey it has been the last couple days lol.
Did ya get out and right ?
I couldn't I went to start my 91 ultra classic electra glide and yep the starter is screwed so ya that happened lmao.
Glad to see ya all.
Can't wait for the next one keep up the great work.
Not yet but the ice is clearing up so hopefully we'll be able to get on the bike soon!
Ya I live in Oneill Ne and we've had some great riding days but I got my 91 flhtcu all washed up and I got ready to go.
NOT lmao I hit the starter and it said nope ain't doin it lol so I have to wait on parts and hope they are the right ones it seams to b different then it should be lol.
Shit doesn't fit it that should lol.
I HATE IT WHEN TBAT HAPPENS.
I see your running lamps fogged up, my limited and my heritage both did that.
I had 2 wires hanging out of new harness .Green was ground & other was hot .I just shoved them into the three prong original connector.
looks so much better than stock. Now you need to change out your turn signals the the Ciro LEDs, they are white until you turn on the signal, then they switch to yellow. Even more visibility. Ciro also make a fang light ring that goes around your headlight. Not only does is look great, you get more LEDs up front and no more bugs up around the headlight in those gaps
I've been wanting that fang light for sure
I did a similar install and now my amber turn signals won't work..any idea? Going to check fuses first..
Looks Great, should be much more noticeable during the day by other vehicles as well. Oh, and Half Assed Heather.....gonna tuck that one away for later it shall not be forgotten .
Haha!
Is this light worth the money I was debating on this vision x vs day maker or the eagle for my 14 streetglide..
Sorry I missed this comment yesterday. I haven't actually had a chance to get it leveled and completely tested out yet but first impression is good at least. Hoping to be able to answer that better after we get back home from Spring Fling later this month.
I just purchased an Ultra Limited and Iâm thinking about getting a Klock Werks windshield. I was wondering what height yours was and what kid of fairing bags do you have attached to it?
Ours is the 8.5". We tried the shorter one and had too much buffeting on her so we stepped up to the 8.5". Also we have the T- bags triple windshield bag. I liked it because hugged the inner fairing better than the Harley one. Tho the side bags can be a pain to reach into sometimes
Awesome! Thanks for the info. Iâll probably go with the bags you have. Iâm still not sure on the height I want for the windshield.
Worthy investment. You two work well as a team on Delores.
I just got a SGS and am looking at doing the same. What research did you do between Vision and Custom Dynamics?
Not a ton to be honest. I've read good things about the Vision X and Ciro has always treated us well as they have amazing customer service, so it was kind of a no brainer for me.
Lol loved it question have you invested in touch up paint yet? Half ass Heather in da house. Great Video guys!!
Haa rt..! Maybe keep a Sharpie in your pocket for quick touch ups đ
You guys just need the smoked out turn signal covers!!!! ;)

I try to subscribed but I can't do it twice lol We had 79 two days ago , 50-60 now , ride on two wheels very soon . Nice Video as allways
Thanks! It's warming up here and I have the itch!
@@LifeontheBlacktop I here yeah there , we had a poker run today , heavy fog all day, but I had to work , so I couldn't go , next month there is two , I am ready now lol
How did you make the hi beam come on with running lights? I bought a a wire to make this happen but instructions are horrible.
The harness it came with allowed them to both be on. The other white wire is for the halo light.
@@LifeontheBlacktop ok thanks I bought a separate wiring harness from Harley that does that same thing. What I bought was a independent control auxiliary lamp wire harness. Itâs just a one piece harness with 2 plugs. Thank you for getting right back to me Iâm impressed
Hey man, quick question I have the same bike. Trying to take off the tour pack. And I am looking for a license plate relocation. Where did you get yours. Thank you
I got mine from softbrake.com, easy install no drilling.
@@LifeontheBlacktop thank you so much
@@LifeontheBlacktop what year is your bike
@@AhmadAliraqi1 2011
@@LifeontheBlacktop beautiful lookin bike. Iâm trying to take the tour pack off. I canât find a kit for it. Or I donât even know what to do with the wires
Now you just need some rouge rider industries turn signal LEDs.
FYI: Di-electric grease on all the terminals helps the life of the terminals.
Solid advice. I have some I just forgot đ

sooooooo much better than the Harley crap. Apparently Feb is headlight month with the motovloggers lol
Gotta love winter content haha
What size windshield is that bro?
This one is an 8.5". We reviewed a couple different ones awhile back if you're interested czcams.com/video/GKOzSn9t6_A/video.html
@@LifeontheBlacktop Thank you for your reply and I also subscribed to your channel!
