    I want to run 12v lighting on this trike, can anyone tell me if the moose voltage regulator is what I need. I just want to run some fog lights or harbor freight lights on it. Or can I just connect it to the stock wires and run it as is? Thanks for the help

    pretty sure you can just hook it up right to the stock wires. If it had lights befor there is already a regulator built in it!

    The 185s does not have a regulator - the lights are the regulator.
    The electrical system runs 12V AC to a 45W headlight and a 5W taillight. The lights don't care if you send them AC or DC.

    If one bulb dies, the other goes with it because the extra juice has gotta go somehwere.

    So, you can probably run a 55W light up front with no tail light and it will be bright enough. Maybe.

    As a point of referrence - I had an 84 ATC 110 engine in a 78 ATC 90 frame. I used parts store LED marker light for a tail light. I managed to burn out both a 45W headlight and the tail light before I figured out the LED tail was using much less wattage than the original. I put a Moose regulator on that trike - problem solved and the stock headlight was plenty bright.

    ATC 110 and ATC 185s = almost identical lighting systems.

    If you're going to experiment, use the Moose regulator - it will keep you from blowing bulbs while you figure out what you're doing.

    Nice build so far. I know some of the guys on here have "Kreemed" the inside of the plastic tank before painting it and I think they had good results.
    Keep on Triking!!!! "I am the NIGHT RIDER!!!"

    Yeah I've heard that works also. Thats still up in the air. THe tank once sanded happens to be almost the exact color of the seat cover and front fork boots. SO I might just add some graphics......not sure yet. Thanks for the advice.
