Some more work has gotten done this weekend. Things are progressing along much more quickly than I had initially figured. I guess it's because all of the engineering had been done over the winter, when building my first bike. So, simply moving everything over to a new bike was much easier.

Nothing is wired up yet, but I got the box mounted onto the rack, and top will go on later.







I converted one of my halogen headlights to a CREE R2 with a 35mm aluminum reflector. It runs off the same 12v from my converter that the old halogen used, excpet now it uses about 1/6 the power. From what I gather, only about 3w vs. the 20w halogen. It is also much brighter, and has alot of throw. I may look for another one that has more flood.
