Atc 500r conversion owners-please read

[Cave Rider]

Im wrapping up the build on my ATC 500R conversion.My question is,have any of you put an operating headlight on one ? If so,where can i score a lighting coil that will work in a 1986 CR500R engine ? Any info would help...
Thanx,
Pat ( Caverider )

I used a moose lighting coil on mine, it' an 95 500 though. I think ricky stator makes one for the earlier years, or can rewind yours.

HURRICANE 635 > Is it a universal fit,that requires mod/install (im capable if so ) ? or is it an assembly intended for direct install ? thanx for responding !!

No need to bump a thread that quickly, people will get to it when they can :)

Hey, thanks caverider. Mine was model specific, I'm sure the earlier models are too.

[Cave Rider]

No problem, i appreciate the info.I will look into it some more... Xpress> If a thread gets deleted when they clear the new posts,how will someone know to respond if they didnt subscribe to it ? just curious is all...

I'm not sure that a thread less then a day old would get deleted.

No light on mine.. Just a number plate. A 500R is not a bike you will ride in the dark. You will understand after it's built :)

What do you mean? I don't think threads get deleted unless you don't follow the rules for some reason or another here. for example, there are 54,910 threads dating back to 10-02-2002 in this section alone.

You ride at the dunes.. Rite ? I was thinking riding at night in the woods. There's no dunes in FL :(

Just follow closely to KASEY, he's got friggin searchlights on his 250!!!

[KASEY]

I have ridden every kind of terrain ,,, i have ridden woods so dark you needed lights in the day time... the size of the motor has nothing to do with the amount of light required to see... but it might have something to do with the size of your BALLS!!!!

I've been looking into getting a light for my cr500 , Ricky does make a lighting coil for it but its only like 25wt .

[Louis Mielke]

Really your best bet is an HRC lighting kit, or an e-line stator kit. The e-line puts out two 100w sources, the HRC kit only puts about about 35-40w. Both are hard to come by. I paid $340 for a used e-line kit, and I was lucky enough to nab an HRC kit for $180 NOS! I know what you're thinking but don't ask, neither are for sale.

"size of your balls" lmao!!!
