    Finally got the Warrior headlights...

    .... and got them mounted to the DXN. But I cant see if they work or not because this POS wont start again!!! lol It was running great, I shut it off, a few day later put the lights on and she wouldn't start again... I hooked up a battery charger and she fired up after a few minutes, ran on idle for about 2 minutes then stalled out and wouldn't re start.. so i pulled the carb...YET AGAIN!! UGGGHHH! and it looked like there was regular motor oil mixed in with the gas. Is it possible for oil to get into the carb?? anyhow I took it all apart, cleaned it and all the jets and holes and ports, put eh back to gether, drained out the gas tank, added clean new gas from a different can and couldn't get it to run. got pissed off and put it away. The last time it wouldnt start, i pulled off the air cleaner and it fired up. this time i did the same but nothing, but thats when found the oil-ish stuff in the carb. ok back to the drawing board.


    Anyway, here's how she looks now with the warrior head light set up.

    That's awesome. Reminds me of the Baja trikes. Did it take much work to get them to fit?

    nahh just had to figure out a way to mount them and to also mount the dash board. I ended up using thick zip ties to mount the dash board to the where the handle bars mount and then i put a bolt through the hole in the headlight cage, into the bottom mount of the dash board... the hole i used in the head light cage im guessing was for the wires to go through on the Warriors.
    Then I made two support bars that go from the front bottom of the Warrior headlight cage to the bolts that tighten around the front forks (where the original Tri-Z headlight cage bolted) Its really sturdy and isn't going anywhere.. lol

    Looks really good that way. They remind me of the headlights from the bike off "The Dirtbike Kid".

    What air filter do you have on it? Maybe it is over-oiled(?)

    I like the look.
