• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Water proof connectors

I have the Molox stye connectors but they are not the best for wet enviroments. I have a lot of wiring and want to put disconnects simular to what the bike now has (do not have to be identical). Hopefully I can find a kit with the pin crimpers if necessary as well as an assortment of female/male connectors and pins.

Also, I seen a set of very high power LED lights at a motorcylce show last month. They are abour 2" round and have a built in hi/low circuit and I believer they are also dimable. I seen some one on Spyderlovers also has them in a pic. Any one tell me the name or seller of these?

Thanks in advance,

Randy
 
I use Posi-Tap connectors and never had an issue with water, although I'm sure they are not water proof .
 
I should have been more specific. I am looking a mutlipin block simular to molox but water proof. The molox I have now range from 2 pins to 20 pins but they are not waterproof and a bit bulky. The type the bikes uses is much nicer and of course water proof. I have about 15 wires I want to be able to quick disconnec all at once or say groups of 2 8-10 pin. I will likely need to buy the crimper too.

I do not want pig tails hanging off a premanufactured assembly, I like the clean custom look.

Thanks

Tric light is close but not the ones I am thinking about. The one I seen one have a interchangle lense to allow for fog or driving light style and they can be wired into the hi/lo switch to automactically dim. They a have a ticker black front cover with white print on it.

Thanks, getting closer, not sure these are designed for 14 guage wire and up but right idea. I know I seen someplace I can buy the connectors simular to those used on the bike, the mirror for example.

Take care,

Randy, that might have been my posting. They are Glenda Clear Water LED head lights. They usually attach to one of the steering components down low and they turn when your wheels turn. If there's a small rock or rubbish, road kill on the road, these low level lights throw a mean shadow to pinpoint the obstacle in the road. I love them! They are pricey, but worth it in my opinion. This company makes lights for aircraft. Enough said on the brightness. There is a variable dimmer switch that comes with it. You can mount it anywhere, but the most popular spot is through one of the holes in the left front speaker grills. The dimmer is only adjustable during regular running lights level. Once you hit the high beams your are melting eye balls. Not exactly a good thing. If we're in high traffic at night I turn the Glenda's all the way down and they are still pretty stellar.
If someone flashes you and you flash back... you won't see them repeat the flash. They wire directly into your reg and hi beam wiring. I hope that this helps and that this is what you were looking for.

PS - If you're coming to SpyderFest, Len has them in stock at Cowtown. These are his personal fav's for LED head light add-ons.

I have an older set of these on my RS. They fit the description you posted. They are a lot cheaper than the Clearwater Glenda lights imho work just as well. http://stores.intuitwebsites.com/hstrial-QualiRegResou/StoreFront.bok
