    I am unhappy with the light output on my 2009 WR125 for night riding and have also entered an upcoming 24 hr enduro.
    I am considering the Baja Designs Squadron Pro led light which draws 42 watts apparently.
    Can the stator on my WR support this light?
    Has anyone tried this upgrade yet?

    i went another route, i was searching for a better headlight i came across the Husky WRE 125 headlight wich looks identical to the stock headlight but uses a H4 Bulb- maybe worth a try?

    If it has the same output as the WR300, than yes it can. Check the service manuals, I believe they list the max output of the stator.


    H4 bulbs draw more current than LEDs and the output sucks. Upgrade to LED if you can afford it. I have the Baja Designs Sport, which is 2 LEDs unlike the 4 LED one OMNIVORE above is looking at, It draws 22 amps and Blows any H4 bulb away, even HID swapped H4s.

    I've done a couple of 24Hr races with a $30 72W light bar from Amazon with a rectifer. WR250 though

    Yes. And with some minor fab work it will fit in the stock mask too.


    Action shot since I don't seem to have a pic just showing the light.

    Awesome.
    From what i can tell the stator may put out 100+watts.
    However I am told that the BD kit requires DC current...and since i have no battery or elec start, I have to figure out a way to install a battery and wire up a way to make it all happen.
    Any help.would be appreciated.

    I think Baja Designs is making a light that runs on AC power as well now too. That would make it even easier for our bikes.

    I am certainly not handy with electrics, and have been reading about stator ground floating etc to convert to DC and adding a battery etc....all too complicated when I see this kit complete for AC statored dirtbikes from Baja Designs.

    Now my question is, does anyone know for sure what the stator output is on an 09 WR125?

    The workshop manual would suggest 300w.


    The factory headlight bulb is a 35w/35w plus a 5w parking bulb for reference.


    I didn't mess with the stator at all and I have my bike wired with a trail tech reg/rec and a small Shorai. I like my lights to work even if I stall out :D

    It gets tight in the airbox though. If I did it again I'd probably find an even smaller battery.
