Rigid Nite Right ... WOO HOO !!


Recommended Posts

I finally got my Rigid Lights mounted. I mounted the Dually’s on top of the front bumper and the SR-M’s on the handlebars using PIAA 360 Universal mounts. Those mounts allow a guy to mount the lights onto any unlevel bar 7/8 inch to 1.25 inches in diameter, and then you can level the light mounting surface. And they work great too. :woot:

So yesterday late afternoon, I loaded the bike and headed up to my track rid’in area. Had plans to ride up to where those big snow drifts are (they are in some of my videos), but it was snow’in, blow’in like a bast …. Ah …. The wind was howl’in & it was real foggy too … so I headed back down to Ant Flats Road to do my night ride test. :drivingc:

WOW !! These freak’in lights are FREAK’IN AWESOME !! :partyc:

I’ve NEVER enjoyed night rid’in before, but I can see (no pun intended) that I’ll be do’in more of that now. :seeyac:

Had a great time out on Ant Flats Road, saw a couple Snowshoe Rabbits and ran into the guy groom’in the trail for the sledders. :cheer:

Funny how much colder it gets when the sun goes down …. :shock:

Here’s a short video of my evening ride … Enjoy !! And make sure ya change the video Quality to 1080 … SAVVY !!! :cheers2c:

Gunny, Do you have any videos on that ute of yours. (Truck) same thing! I would have gone the other way around with the lights Floods on the bars spots on the bumper, cause when you turn you need to see whats immediately in front/ beside / around you, on a tight turn any way! I have floods on the bars but they aren't flash LEDs though. They do a good job of lighting up a camp site or fishing too. I will change over to LED one day, so I don't have to worry about a flat bat, All though Its never happened (and in saying that now it will )

No vids of the truck ... but I have lots of photo's PM me your e-mail address & let me know what ya wanta see & I can send ya some photo's with some details.

Well, I got the floods first thru a contest. I WANTED Spots, but they only offered the lights in the Flood pattern for the contest ... therefore, I went with Spots for the bars.

And so far, I'm pleased. And trust me, the video doesn't do the lights justice ... or the Spots ... much better than it looks in the video's ... and I can still spread out the pattern (lights) if I want.

      Hello,
      I was able to repair most of the little problems on my 2006 BRUIN. I still have little things to do...
      I changed the Hazard light Switch because it was not locking when pushed and now it is not working at all. When I connect it (not sure of the wiring -4 wires but a lot of connection possible on this HELLA 3916-01 switch-) the flashing lights button (on the handlebar) is acting like the Hazard light switch.

      I have to replace all 4, how much is involved?  Will they slide out of the front yoke? Or, do the boots just slide over the wheel end?
