LEDs, why Not?














They're bright. I'm not talented enough to do a brakelight pic, but the running lights are super bright all by themselves.
Waiting on my headlights to show up next.

Ahhh crap. I'm an idiot.
Guess I could just lock the parking brake on the handle for brakelight pics.
Meh, just take my word for it. They are bright.

Just like everything else, I procrastinated on picking my plow up.
Had to improvise.

It looks like they light up the area more evenly.

LED's are the way to go. Haven't gone out on a night ride yet so I don't know how good the headlights on the 1000 are.

Thanks.
Going to have to go for those HD coils. Got my plow on today, and the front really sags with the extra weight.




This is the plow I picked up today. Install was a nightmare, but it works great. I snowblowed my last driveway, and half the neighborhood, but my new driveway is much bigger. That plowing is about as much fun as you can have with your clothes on.

When I bought my hd coils, Polaris was the best bang for the $$.
