    Can someone with a SLR post up some static beam shots. I did an HID upgrade to my 07 SMR510 and was thinking about switching over. As much as I love the output of the HID, the baja designs headlight shell is UGLY....Ive tried diff shell/lens combos with the HID but the beam is terrible.....Thanks

    Theres one thing thats kinda cool about the LED light.

    EVERYONE thinks im a cop.

    Its the LED. They look like something out of Terminator.

    I didnt really realize how bling it was till i pulled up behind a shiny tanker truck and saw my reflection.

    Its hella cool. Do the young still say 'hella'? :excuseme:

    Well got my replacement LED in the mail. STILL NO WORKY. Lucky me, I'm on a 3day adventure ride. This is getting really bad for my bloodpressure. MY blue to his black//my white on his white= absolutely NOTHING. Both will be sent back if I cant figure this out.

    are you saying with JUST the key turned to the ON position.. not actually fired up and running??? Because I don't know bout other Huskys.. but my stock 610 headlight low or high beam doesn't work unless the bike is actualy running..

    It has to be running. Other wise people would leave the light on then run the bat down.. Later George

    Does the stock light work? Have you checked your fuse lately? This sound real strange to me. Mine even works off the little park light power wire. Sorry you are having such a bish of a time with it.

    My stock light works fine. Fuse is good/so is the backup. My 07 dosn't have a key ignition...sshhhhh! Just a steering lock.

    I thought this light would run DC? If so it should run off the battery right? How are you supposed to use the work light feature if your bike is not running? Seems odd.

    maybe better for fixing some other person's bike, or signaling for the search helicopter or scaring off the mountain lions.

    George is a great help. What customer service, he will do his hardest to help a fellow Husky rider out.:thumbsup: Here's the scoop, my 07 510 has AC voltage comming to the stock headlight, and that is why the cool uptite light isn't working, should be a simple fix.

    More confusion then as i thought this would run AC or DC. if it is DC why does it not run with the bike off like any light?
  19. Up-tite Husqvarna

    Because on some of the early model bikes the head light is AC powered the later ones are DC. LED needs 12v DC won't work on AC.
    Therefore Power must be tested to make sure when running it is 12V DC. If can't find DC power source then just have to run 2 wires from battery to Hd lite and just add a toggle switch. Later George
