i was just wondering if i should take off my headlight on my 300ex. some say it looks cooler but ive never seen one like that, so i have no clue!! thanks

 

yea take off the headlight and handlebar cover...looks much better

 

If you dont plan on riding at nite yo can remove the light . Most MX racers take off the lighting because of the weight and areodymanics.

 

Go to my picture site, mine has no headlight.

 

thanks guys!!

 

if ur gonna race take em off

if u dont race why take em off? u may need it,unless u never ride at night

night riding is a sport in itself

 

i take mine off because i ride mainly with motox bikes.....stones and light lenses are not good!.....don't do a lot of night riding anymore.....i do when i am living on farms.....uni holidays (work)

........it's your decision....recommend if you do leave the light on, on trailrides.....insulation tape it across the lens, so if it breaks it will remain intaked

 

I say say the thing off! I rolled mine yesterday and bent the mount pretty bad and broke that lame looking handlebar cover. I am going to take it all off swap the bars and keep everything so when I sell it I can put it all back on in good shape. Also if you want to keep your light use a KC driving light vinyl cover with the padding. The rocks just bounce off it.

 

take it off! looks like **** anyways my 250X is um striped of anything not needed (im wierd like that) less wheight the better hehe

 

The 300EX looks cool without the headlight and it actually turns easier. I like to ride at night too so a quick disconnect to the appropriate wires and the two attaching bolts on the headlight frame ( along with the headllight plastic trimmed ) allow for day "off" night "on". Sometimes I attach the headlight during the day if we venture into the caves at Calico.
