AWESOME. been looking for a tutorial on how the hell to connect the DRL connector into this bikes power source. never thought to actually disconnect the proprietary plastic connector to expose the spade connectors.
@@losttogether4ever Nevermind it looks like my wiring is different from yours. On my gt650, the DRL connector has the same red plug, but it doesn’t separate into 2 spade connectors like yours. Odd. EDIT: looks like i'll just cut the wire and add my own spade connectors!
Man thank God you made this video. I installed this exact light I purchased off Amazon for $58. Same to a tee. Came straight from India. I had the yellow to yellow and the white to black. Needless to say I had an amber light only. Now that I disconnected it as correctly matched the white wire to the yellow it worked absolutely perfect. Thanks again! It looks so much better having the white halo ring vs the yellow amber ring. Jeff - Sunny Central Florida
@@losttogether4ever Man this immensely helped me. I thought about the wiring when I was in bed almost asleep and then looked up your video. You explained it perfectly. Good job. God bless 🙏
Thanks. I was struggling how to make the halo light work. Some KOLs cut the bike wire or the headlight wire in order to connect them. I was hesitating to do that. Luckily found your video. It's so helpful. Thanks again
Hi, just watching your video again having bought the same one, tho mine came with the black rim, but on the spring clips point on the outer edge of the led light are three raised hollow boxes, which is were you are supposed to put the springs, as opposed to flat on the lower rim, that's probably why you found them a bit slack and had to use the leather strips 😊
Hmmmm, I'm not sure if mine has those raised ridges or not I'll have a look next time the fairing is off. Thanks for the tip and thanks for being a part of our channel.
Looks great! Thanks for your R.E. videos. Waiting on a reply to a message I sent to the seller on Aliexpress because when I tried to order the headlight it says it cannot be shipped to my address. :( (USA) Also saw your 16t front sprocket video & just ordered one from your link. Thx again.
Nice video. Would be nice if you add a night time footage. No need to be on the road. Just light it up infront of the garage in the night. Also - personal preference - i like the old logo better. Cant put my finger on it but the new logo lacks something.
Thanx for the video .I will change my headlamp out for an led when i take delivery in a week .I like your videos on the up grades to your bike .Are you still pleased with the tech 2into 1 exhaust?
That is weird? I wonder if maybe they changed the wiring or design between mine and yours? Your's also has the raised ridges making installation easier.
I've seen those but before ordering I would contact the seller and make sure the headlight is actually mounted in the ring. I suspect that it is not so will still need customizing but if someone knows please comment. The listings make it appear these are Factory RE products but I think only the ring is RE. I could be wrong though, if someone knows please comment.
I would say no because you aren't changing anything relating to the engine or wiring. However, it would be best to check with your dealer to make sure.
@@losttogether4ever ah no worries thanks for the reply I'm not sure what the rules are for replacing headlights in the UK with led lights I'll have to take a look.
HELP....HELP...I DO THIS BECAUSE NO ONE WILL RESPOND JUST GIVE ME LIKES... My headlight doesn't have that forked wiring for the halo at the 8:14 mark. Just has that red plastic cap and no wire. Someone please help me. I have a 2022 int. Thanks
It looks like Royal Enfield changed the wiring between 2021 and 2022. You may have to identify the Daytime Running light power wire and then wire that directly to the new headlight. I'm not sure where you are from but I've heard that some EU bikes may be wired a bit differently. Sorry I can't help any more than that. Hopefully someone who has a bike similar to yours will add to the discussion. Thanks for watching.
@@losttogether4ever Thanks for replying I’m in Texas. I watched another video different halo light but same wires basically you connect it to one of he leads that are on the headlight the single prong that goes into the outlet looking thing. You can get a jumper or splice it some how. I just took the supplied white light cable and put it in the same slot in the outlet and shared it with one of the prongs. Sorry don’t know technical names.

@@notstevelam looks like we have different connectors in Europe?
@@notstevelam I was trying to link the drl but I came across your same problem. Did you figure out?

@@losttogether4ever if you check your video at exactly 4:29 you can clearly see the blocks I mentioned, there should be three of em 👌🏻
@@kevindarkstar You're right !! At 5:19 you can see the 3 tabs. Thanks a lot next time I take it apart I'll use the clips on those raised ridges 👍
ahhh thanks man… was lookin for new headlight clips that fit but now… i’m just gonna steal my girlfriends leather belt and cut it up
Ha Ha !! Glad I could help!!
Nice job on the video and beautiful bike.
Glad you enjoyed it!!

You're very welcome! If the seller won't ship to the USA, I'm sure there are others that sell the same headlight, good luck, glad we could help out!!
Easy-peasy....nice job!
Thank you! Cheers!
La tua moto è fantastica e tu lavori molto bene
Grazie mille per le belle parole!
Amazing! can you do a video showing how does it light at night?
Thanks, Yes I'll try and put an addition to the video soon.
Nice video. Would be nice if you add a night time footage. No need to be on the road. Just light it up infront of the garage in the night. Also - personal preference - i like the old logo better. Cant put my finger on it but the new logo lacks something.
Great idea, I'll see what I can do!
So is this considered the new logo or the old logo? I have this light installed and it looks great 👍
@@onecrazywheel the logo on the headlight in this video is the new logo.
Cool looking mod
Thanks glad you enjoyed it, check out our other mads too!!
Thanx for the video .I will change my headlamp out for an led when i take delivery in a week .I like your videos on the up grades to your bike .Are you still pleased with the tech 2into 1 exhaust?
Thanks, yes I still like the TEC Stinger 2 into 1. It gives a great sound!!
Also weird, my version of this in the UK the beams are the reverse of yours, on low beam the bottom three light up, and on hi beam the top three 🤷🏻♂️
That is weird? I wonder if maybe they changed the wiring or design between mine and yours? Your's also has the raised ridges making installation easier.
@@losttogether4ever maybe who knows what the chinese manufacturers do 🤷🏻♂️
Where did you get the headlight fairing white one..looks so classic…I got the same ice queen
Thanks, it's a C-racer fairing, here's our video-- ruclips.net/video/C548J1jb1Is/видео.html
You can get the new meteor 650 headlight now too
Good idea is it readily available yet?
They sell a headlight that comes with a chrome circle housing so hopefully don't need to customize.
I've seen those but before ordering I would contact the seller and make sure the headlight is actually mounted in the ring. I suspect that it is not so will still need customizing but if someone knows please comment. The listings make it appear these are Factory RE products but I think only the ring is RE. I could be wrong though, if someone knows please comment.
@@losttogether4ever I think you might be right.
hi, thanks for the video it looks great, is the new light signifcantly lighter than the original do you know?
Yes, I'd say it's about half the weight of the original, the original has a glass reflector whereas the new one has a plastic projector.
Where did you get the leather bags?
Thanks for watching! Those are Raw and Rugged bags here's a video on them. ruclips.net/video/H5dLulB9As4/видео.html
So does this void the 3 year warranty?
I would say no because you aren't changing anything relating to the engine or wiring. However, it would be best to check with your dealer to make sure.
do you still like the headlight? i was looking at that headlight
Yes I do, I think it looks very unique!!
Hi there I was just wondering if this is a genuine royal enfield accessory
Hello, Thanks for watching, no it is not a genuine Enfield Accessory it is aftermarket.
