I have a 1991 2-stroke and the original headlight socket is melted and the lens is faded so I bought some aftermarket halogen lights for $15 at Wal-mart. I mounted them to the bottom side of the front rack and they worked great for a week then burned out I think from the vibration of the engine and bumpy roads.

I exchanged them for another set and put extra rubber between the rack and light mount. The second set lasted two weeks! Does anyone know of an economical light for my application that is resistant to vibration?

Thanks in advance for any help!

 

Nevermind. I'm an idiot.
Maybe I shouldn't have washed down all that cold medicine with Jaegermeister. [img]i/expressions/beer.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

You can get better lights somewhere else besides Wally World. I see them all the time at auto stores, but good ones probably cost more. Sorry I can't be more helpful.
