    CREE LED Headlight Modification

    We too get our share of rain and flooding in the Midwest US. And tornados, hail, ... Once I was caught in a torrential rainstorm in Tennessee. 5 inches of rain in one hour. The water wash off my front tire was knocking my feet off the pegs. I was riding an FJR1300. But, seriously, this unit...

    CREE LED Headlight Modification

    Dunlop D214.

    Some of our FZ's over here are fitted with D214's. We find them slippery at best and dangerous at worst. I low sided the bike riding it home from the dealer.
