Check with Marty "The Party" or Shane "Moose" or maybe Jared Thomas
They might have some to sell from Last Man Standing race.

Check out http://www.cyclopsmotorsports.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. I use the dual HID helmet light set-up - these things are bright enough to ride full pace in the dark. Very good. Probably about 10 guys around Calgary with this set-up.

He also sells bike lights. I use a Baja Designs Diablo which is very good. The trail tech X2 HID also looks good and would be my next purchase.

Thanks for some of the good ideas, the Arc's are no longer available, however I like the looks of the cyclops product. Can't wait to try some of these out. :cheers:

Just got my TrailTech X2 in the mail 2 weeks ago...have not had time to install yet. i also got the 100 watt stator setup to power those HID lights...so it can be a pricey package, but when you go out at night, those really good lights are totally worth it. the stock halogen lights are great for getting you back to the truck, but are really tricky to just go riding with. plus, once you have the setup, your good for years.
once i have this installed and try it out i will post. i have heard nothing but great reviews on this light...the 100 watt stator/wiring package looks very well put together. definately will take me a while to do that conversion....huge regulator rectifier too. the unit is supposed to put out 100 watts at idle.

According to the owners manual the 250xc stock stator is supposed to be good for 100watts? Why do you need a new one?
