I know, I know...the helmet. I welcome any other cheap shots for my stupidity. lol Haven't had the bike too long, I'm working on getting a helmet. We were just riding some short trails around my buddy's house. Nothing hardcore. The light on the front is a spotlight off a boat. I put it on the other day for a night ride. It's pretty frickin bright but it only shines in a horizontal line. Also, it doesn't turn with the bars. That's one thing I like about the factory one.
