I bought the $55 light for my ktm 690 Enduro. Well worth the money. I don't understand how some of these light manufactures get away with charging hundreds for LEDs.

Been waiting for this one 🔥

Great vid, very professional. Nice bike! I have been looking to upgrade my light on my XCW as well for the same reason, coming back late from the trails. Love it!

Thanks for shedding light on thisbb

The $70 light cut off is super clean and the light is uniform. I'd say having a uniform light with a clean cutoff is more important than raw brightness anyway.

Great video!

How does the Baja Designs light compare? That’s what I’d really like to see a comparison with.

How did you end up re pinning the $55 light?

Nice mate👌🏻

what abouit a good tailight kit with license plate mount?

Can you send links for the connectors and switches needed?

Thanks for your video. You are awesome . !!!

Where did you buy the headlight plastic?

Can you mount this to any dirt bike?

I have just received the $55 headlight. Is there a way for the high beam and low beam switch to work the light?

Order put with affiliate links, All honda parts hope it works i even added the ktm light to my order and saved for later to tag it right

Hey, are you using a recitifier for the LED headlight? I have AC output on my exc and wonder how I would run an LED

@mattmcnew5080

Did you ever find your answer? You need a flasher relay for LED. Tacomoto sells them

would it be possible to swap a 2014 headlight for a 2018+ modern headlight if i also change the plastic housing

@dirtniron

Yes i think so, not sure about the wire connectors but you can always swap them

On my 2018 KTM 300 I had to put a trail tech stator with rectifier to convert AC to DC. Unfortunately it would burn out the LED if it remained AC power.

few days ago I ordered my lamp for 450 sx-f from aliexpress a little different from your's $55

I will change the ,,batman" headlight!😂 And put the 77$ one,way better! 💯Thanks Rado👌

I need a hesdlight for my 23 tx 300. Not aure what to get..

Do these fit smcr 2017?

How did you convert the AC power than comes stock on your carb 300 to DC power like 4 strokes and TPI bikes? That light should have burned out if you ran it on AC power and not DC power.

rectifier most likely. simple to do, better to buy one, rated for power consumption.

Is the headlight running off of the ac circuit from the old headlight or did you have to connect it to dc current from somewhere/ using a rectifier?

Will these fit pit bikes

That $55 lights can see more compared to the $70 lights. I doubt people will be buying that $70 lights when the $55 is way better

Will these fit a 2022 KTM XCF 350?

Not bad. I had a stock light on an 08 and it was terrible. A cheap flash light was better

I hv a 2017 KTM 250 xcf, it doesnt appear to be prewired for a headlight. Can someone confirm if my bike is prewired, i dont see that larger pigtail connection to power?

@@dirtniron That is correct. With XC W you decide to wire in the low beam or high beams, or even all of them. Will depend on the wiring on the headlight you get. They usually send instructions.

Great video. Biggest win for me is the Stock one. Simply because if you're far from home and the light dies you could get an H4 bulb at any gas station.
