Sweeney 316 Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 I've got one but find the beam to be way too wide. Would be much better if it was more spot. It lights up everything around it ! Quote Link to post
Belfasthunter 12 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 Can you use a filter Sweeney and how long would you say the battery lasts? Quote Link to post

It lights up everything around it ! you can adjust the beam by either screwing the reflector housing forward and backwards and by moving the bulb forwards and backwards Quote Link to post

jeppi26 1,855 Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 As Paul said pull the bike out a touch it's a lot better and the 170 with 22amp is a good bit of kit but theres no warning when the battery is loosening charge it just goes off unless you get the battery with the fuel gauge on Quote Link to post
