[edog]

Here's the lights I went with SYKO:

There's a ton of options for these offroad lights. The 350x can run duel 55's without a stator upgrade.

[oldtime3wheeler]

That looks very nice.

[Russell 350X]

Looks pretty awsome chris, that'll be good for night riding at pensultucky.

[blue27]

I like it, I have an old school set off an 250R , I just might have to put them on the X. AWSOME!!!!!!!

[DixiePlowboy]

Absolutely wicked!

What wattage are they?

[chris200x]

I like it, I have an old school set off an 250R , I just might have to put them on the X. AWSOME!!!!!!!

the triples on the X & R have diffrent mounting points. The lights are 55w each. So I didn't have to have the stator rewound.

your just a retard but iliek the light man looks killer!

I may be a retard but at least i can spell! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :w00t:

[Dammit!]

Badass! Can you give us an idea how much brighter they are over the stock setup? Like 50% brighter? More? Less?

Looks killer either way. PIAA makes some bulbs that draw only 55 watts but put out like 125 watts or something. You might want to look into that. Imagine running dual 125 watt lights in those puppies! Don't have the link handy but it sounded cool. They even make some 35s that will fit the stock 350x housing that put out 55 watts.

Edit: Michelle says they look like hooters. :lol:

[tanks350x]

deffinately looks good Chris, I thought about doing something like that myself

[Dammit!]

Here's the link to the thread where you can get this setup. It will fit a 350x, 250r or 200x.

I was really interested in this set up when they were first offered. That is until I saw those tiny pieces that come off the oval and attach it to the front end. I can't understand why it wasn't made with the same diameter tubing for the whole cage?

I said the same thing.

Has anyone considered hundreds of LEDs in the stoxkers?

Btw, love the lights chris. Looks damned fine

I am working on a true HID, ballest set up for my 350X.

[Nick_R_23]

You can buy motorcycle HID kits that fit ATV's. I was gonna put one in my 250r a while ago, but the 100w Xenon bulb I have in there already freakin lights up everything at night. I might still put in HIDs later if I have an extra 35 or 45 bux laying around and nothing else to work on.

He exlpained the reason for that in the other thread. It only looks thin in comparison to the oval piece. The supports are as thick as a hondaline guard. Should be fine.

I had to tweak it a bit to get it on, but's it's very well built. I ride like a sissy most of the time so I should be good. I'm not too crazy about the lights plastic housing tho.

Doug, I'll let you know how bright they are later today! :naughty:

Oh, I don't have hi/low beam anymore.:confused:

[freaksfix]

I ran a set year ago with the plastic housing and they shook out the first time I crossed the RR tracks. I had to take the out and put a heavy bead of silicone inside and put them back together.

[Mike_Ham_250R]

Hah I love those lights!

[honda250sx]

I am working on a true HID, ballest set up for my 350X.

Already have mine just about set for my Tri-Z.

I will be running 6" stainless pro-comp lights. The will utilize a H3 bulb. HID slim balasts. It will be sick!

[ironchop]

Hey Chris...nice light setup for sure...but was that drive sprocket cover made on a waterjet or a laser cutter?

I used to program Omax waterjets...I made lots of stuff including three grab bars for my X`s before the Meltdown and my employer went out of business

That sprocket cover just sets it off on that side...nice piece

sort story is I`m out of waterjet access and got files on a zip of some stuff I programmed I need made

PM me

[DeePa]

that sprocket cover was hand made by sblt500r here on the forums...

[Dammit!]

Hey Chris, what type of bulbs do those lights you bought use? Are they H3?

[chris200x]

Hey Chris, what type of bulbs do those lights you bought use? Are they H3?

Yes, H3 12v 55w halogen bulbs.(that's what it says on the box anyways)


what's H3 mean?:wondering

[maggiesboy]

sweet setup right there. I'm gonna play too I think.

[chris200x]

What the heck is that? :confused: 350x astro kit? trx frame? details? any better pics?

Look what you can do. :D

http://www.piaa.com/Bulbs/Bulbs-H3.html

You can throw a couple of these PIAA 55 watt bulbs in there that draw 55 watts but somehow magically put out over 100 watts of light. No idea how it works but I've read from other forums that they're bright as hell.

[Air-cooled-R]

nice. I think shes ready for night at the baja 1000 now

[edog]

Still waiting for some video!

[montess85]

where did you get that bracket.....and what wattage does a 250sx put out.......i have got 200x tripple on there and I think that would be a sweet setup....

[freaksfix]

What the heck is that? :confused: 350x astro kit? trx frame? details? any better pics?


Its an Astro kit but the Astro fenders look like Suzuki and a Honda guy cant have that, I cut down a set of TRX 250R fenders made it look 10 times better... I'll see if ive got anymore pics, i converted it back to a trike and sold the frame to Longisland mike a few years back...

[montess85]

anyone know where to get that light bracket

[Gripit'n'ripit]

They look hot. Makes the trike stick out nice.

[DeePa]

wild200x is selling them on 3wheeler.org forums

[SYKO]

HAS anyone gotten these put on a 85-86 250R yet? im curious as to how they may work and what wiring for a stock stator is needed.

[montess85]

well does anyone have a number or price......

Man..... This is why I got all the other crap mostly done!

I got a tubing bender (thx DEEPA) and some tubing, I wanted to make some round tubing housed guards or light mounts.

BUT, I think Wild did an awesome job and he's right about making one general housing to use with different models mountings.

I look forward to getting Jeff's stuff and seeing what I can do with it......

I really really really wish I had more time and a fully operational machine shop, I fabed up some awesome stuff when I was an industrial mechanic :(

[honda250sx]

Its coming steve! :w00t:

[DeePa]

lol i have 2 on the way too, one for my r and one to get on my z...

[honda250sx]

Apparently Stephen WILL be busy busy. More pretty welding and cat fur!!!!!

[DeePa]

god bring a change of clothes if you sit on his couch LOL

[honda250sx]

Mike LMFAO...

Did you buy any lights yet? I'm worried about them hella's shaking themselves to death. Check mine out at Steve's should be there by the weekend when you guys are working on something I'm sure.

[chris200x]

Look what you can do. :D

Whoa! I somehow missed this post. THANKS! This is something I'll look into after I get a few rides in with this new setup. I'd say they're almost twice as bright as the stockers now.. (anyone know for sure if those PIAA's bulbs will fit the hella's?) @ $50 a clip I wanna make sure I'm right the first time.

....you would think "off road" lights that they bolt to the front bumpers of trucks would hold up the the abuse... I'll let you guys know if I ever get back out to ride. :lol:

[Dammit!]

If it's a H3 bulb it should fit. Just to be safe I'd buy them from somewhere that has an easy return policy.

I can only imagine how bright that will be if it works. You're gonna look like a freight train from a distance. :lol:

[chris200x]

Thanks Doug! next time I head into town I'll stop at the local autoparts store and look into it.

[Dammit!]

So where's the ride report + vids? :D

[chris200x]

So where's the ride report + vids? :D

Your getting as bad as edog.. :lol:

I probably wont get in a nite ride in till brapp's Patuckey ride. I'm sure we'll get some :pics: or vids then. :D

[Dammit!]

Got mine from Ted today. I put it on the 350x loosely just to see how it looks. It's not bolted down. I need different bulbs to make it work. My PIAAs have 100 watt bulbs in them for the R. I'll probably get some different lights altogether for the tree fiddy.

Pics!

Doug, PC that WHITE!!!!

Looks sick. God we need a ride report with these puppies!

[chris200x]

Looks good Dammit! I almost went for a road ride tonight since we're getting buried with snow.. But decided I dont feel like getting arrested. lol

I'm gettin real anxious to try them out.. I just wish it were 70 degrees!

I like the idea of running one flood and one spot light like those PIAA's. Did you have hi/low beans on your R?

[Dammit!]

Did you have hi/low beans on your R?

Don't think so. I only rode that bike around the neighborhood a few times.

[montess85]

So no one has said yet how much they cost ..........and whats this guys number or email to get them

[Dammit!]

It's been said multiple times actually. They are fifty bucks for the frames (lights not included). A guy named Ted (aka wild200x) on www.3wheeler.org is reproducing them since they are long discontinued.

Here is the direct link.

[The Goat]

so..... how bright are these?

[chris200x]

Bright enough! :D Hopefully, now that's it's getting warm I'll be able to use them more often.

Someone should buy a set of FOG lamps and trade me for one of my DRIVING lamps. :idea: that would be the killer setup.

[Autophysn]

whoooaaaooooowwww

Dude, that rocks!

[honda200xatc]

Anybody know a link I can go to to buy this light mount setup for a 200x? I tried the 3wheelerorg link but it says I do not have access.

[dragracingvw]

Hello all, Yea I'm a newbie to the forum and I shouldn't be making requests like this so soon, but I need your help.
I have an '85 Honda 250r and I want one of these light bars BAD. I have contacted Ted and it just isn't worth his time
to make just one of these and I understand. Here is where I need your help. If we can get a few orders together he is willing to make another run. So if your interested in one please pm him at the 3wheeler.org site. wild200x is his user name

[dragracingvw]

Man I was hoping some other people would be interested in one of these.
Is anybody else making them. I really want one.

[chris200x]

I been outta the loop for a while on here guys. Ted over on .org doesn't do them anymore..I do remember steve (dirtcrasher) on this site, is a pretty good fabricator.. maybe he can help ya's out

[Rollingmenace]

ill pm ted as well man i need a bar and ill see him in april... i guess if he doesnt want to do any more of these i have a good friend that builds and fabricates custom stuff for 4 wheel drive trucks i bet i could talk him into building a few light bars

[dragracingvw]

Yes please pm him for one. Maybe if another person would also ,he would start.
I need 2 now one for my 85 250r and one for a 85 200x that I picked up last weekend.
Kinda want to stick with Ted since he has made a few.
