What are you stabbing from the driver's seat? 😂





**Edit- Nevermind. Forgot about the snakes. Keep stabbing, Friend. Let me know if you need a bigger knife **

I bought this little Pioneer Monday and worked it today. I love it.

and I thought it was a falling branch....

Ahhh... did I find where the 9th plug goes from 8 piece frame plug kit?

Great, just when I thought I was done throwing money at this thing for the season…🤑 I’m glad the aftermarket is heating up for this machine though.

Update: the Hondaboats headlights arrived 3 days after I ordered them. They look high quality to me but I’ll save my praise for once I have them installed and can hopefully see things at night.

How wide are you now front and back? Looks great!

Not sure. It looks like rear is slightly narrower than front. I haven’t measured. I think stock rim is 12x6 in front and 12x7.5 in rear.

That was honestly one of the most straightforward and rewarding mods I have done to my P52. Swapping these Hondaboats headlights in for the stock units takes only the most basic of mechanical skills. 30-60 mins is all it should take from beginning to end if you watch the guide by Appalachian. The new lights are many times brighter than the stock units, as you may expect. My only concern is how exposed and vulnerable the back of the LED headlights are to being hit by rocks and debris being flung by the tires. Only time can tell on the durability of these Hondaboats units but so far I am very pleased with the product. P.S. Sorry, no outdoor comparison pics. 😕

Do you think they're too bright? Not vision wise but would they blind oncoming traffic?

 

[happyfred]

I cut down some trees to get more sunlight in to a part of my woods. I want more undergrowth for the deer.
Hauled wood out and went for a ride.

I think we all know how obnoxious light bars are for oncoming traffic. With that said, I feel like there is a certain angle where the glare reduces considerably. It just comes down to adjustment at that point. How much do you value range of light over on-comers comfort. I’d say just adjust them extra low until you actually need them at night and then adjust for that rare occasion.

That's what I thought. I use mine as running lights when on the trail, in fact it's the law. Have plenty of other lights for night riding. Too bad, they look cool as hell but I'll have to pass due to them being too bright.

Needs a dimmer or High / Low switch

Have one on each side aiming low just to be seen. Have the other two aiming higher that can be turned on with a switch.

Too bad you couldn't modify the stock headlight bucket and utilize it? Although, without a lens on the front they'd probably just accumulate crap that wouldn't have a way to clear out. 🤔

You mean like... clear Nerf Bars for the headlights... 🤭
