How many watts is each light?

Keep check on your battery voltage with 100W of light. Never tried running that much for any length of time, but you may find you need to keep it on a charger when not in use, because I don't know that the scoot will keep up with the draw.
Search for downhill bars, and you'll need an adapter for the bars. RacingPlanetUSA carries them as well as a lot of overseas sellers like Scooter Attack and SIPScooterShop.

Thanks, Brent. I will keep check on the battery. I had the same thoughts as you about keep it charged, but i rarely ride at night and i have them off while riding in the day so they aren't used much. Still, they need to be reliable when i actually DO need them. I will try some night rides tonight and see how everything holds up. Thanks

Battery came in, works great! seems to stay charged with the headlights on as well. Accidentally hooked the terminals up wrong the first time... was too excited to get it on, and blew the fuse

Installed a tach, worked well with the tabs that were used to hold the stock cluster/headlight. Ordered a matching speedometer that will go on the other tab beside the tach.

this tach had 2 sets of power/ground wires. 1 set for the illumination and the other set for the actual gauge power. the last wire went into the coil positive.
