Awesome video, crazy InMotion would put such a terrible headlight on such a beautiful machine. Looks like another mod I will have to do.
Absolutely. Im just glad this mod worked way better than the original mod.
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 I just ordered my Kaabo Wolf King light from Amazon, it will be here early June. I tried Voro but they have been out of stock for awhile.
Dude I'm from LA too, highland park. High five hometown buddy!
No way!!!! Dude, that's awesome!!!!! 😁👊
So they both run on the same volts? Also, are they running on battery voltage, or a voltage regulator? If it's a voltage regulator, can it handle the amp draw increase for long?
Hi, that's a very good question, and i probably should have mentioned that information in the video. to answer your question It definitely has a voltage regulator in it ftom as low as 12 volts all the way up to 80 volts. It will apparently give you the same output and It has a 50,000 hour LED Life and based on the specs on the box ot apparently has an 80% energy saving for long use so i believe it wont draw too many amps from the battery of the scooter. Unfortunately, i dont know how many amps it draws vs. the stock LED Headlight, and i dont have the testing tools to find out. But i would assume it would take about the same battery life as the stock Headlight.
Hey bro, hope you’re feeling better! If were to install this on my Burn E 2, would I get the same high light and strobe feature?
Hi, Absolutely! All you have to do is quickly power on and off the headlight till you get the High brightness, Low brightness or strobe and your good to go. 😎👊
Ayoo bro, I just would like to recommend the magicshine monteer 12000 it is a life changing night ride light 👌🏻
Sweet! Ill take a look. 😎👊
Cool! I'll wait for that!
@user-hi9gr2gi7f hi, i just checked out the LED light on google and it looks like a great light but definitely out of my price range so unless it goes down in price by at least 50% i wont be able to purchase it and review it. 😅🙏
Holy crap man, this is super helpful I'm definitely doing this ASAP. Subbed. I ride to and from my college campus, and the street lighting is terrible. I can barely ride at night because I can't see anything outside of that tiny light box which is still bright enough to piss off every oncoming car if I dont tilt it down.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with everyone. Great job 👍👍
You're welcome, and thank you for the positive feedback, i greatly appreciate it. 🙇♂️🙏
Interesting. It's the same light of my Nami. Iwas thinking...if instead of horizontal, i put it vertically....
You are awaking ideas, man. Thank you!
Your welcome, yeah i definitely recommend giving this Kaabo GTR headlight a try.
The lights are on Wolf 10, 11 and ,,King These are extremely bright headlights. But remember, these have flood lights as well. As spotlights, that means, if you try to face them straight forward, you are literally blinding people and before you say I don't give a c*** Try to adjust the headlights down. A little bit walk about 30 feet up. Turn around and look at it and see how it will blind you. Please respect others, especially oncoming traffic. I'm fixing to sell my Naomi Klima max and buy a RS.
@theebikeguy3852 mine is definitely adjusted. The Nami Klima Max is a nice scooter but you're going to be very impressed with the performance of the RS. 😎👍
@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 good to here sold the wolf king went 65mph klima 43mph and now the RS right in the middle sweet spot 😆 🤣
Are all the headlights have the same model on the kaabo wolf king/gt/gt pro/gtr? Or every kaabo model have different headlights? Thanks
@kulaslucas423 From what I've been able to tell, yesh it seems the wolf warior and wolf king line share the same headlight
Thanks for the video. My son just got a Mantis 10 Light, and looking to put the dual headlights on it. I searched their site, I can't find their bracket for it though.
@christopherdecker8171 your very welcome. I wish i could help with that but since i dont have a Mantis 10 Light i cant really help with giving you a legit answer on finding the right bracket for the headlight. 🙏🙇♂️
Why didn't you just splice the OEM headlight wires into the Wolf King headlight wires instead of taking the housing apart?
@p5stunna Excellent Question. Main reason is because it was more appropriate to solder the wires directly to the board vs. accidentally having the wires accidentally make contact with each other and frying the central controller. One person already did that and burned out his central controller. This is why i made this tutorial. That's a very expensive mistake to make. 😥🙏
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983burned out both brake sensor on my Magura brakes from wires accidentally touching. At 85 dollars a piece, I’m salty. It’s better to just do it right.
@TheGRANCRU yep thats right. Soldering the wires directly to the board on this led light or making sure the horn has its wire clips with heatshrink on them is the best way to prevent a short otherwise it can turn into a very expensive repair of we are out of warranty. No one wants to spend extra on an already expensive machine. 😬🙏
Have you got a link for all the screws you used? Both for headlight back and the mounting brackets
The mounting bracket is actually the same one that comes with the RS headlight. Now a link for the screws is a little hard to get as i went to my local hardware store to buy them. But they are M5 screws by 3/4" long and used two M5 washers and 2 M5 locking nuts.
Damn good tutorial video brother 👍🛴💯
🙏🙇♂️
Thank you very much. I just bought an RS and I'm doing the same mod. My screws broke as well. The small screws you replaced in the light, what size are they? I'm sure they're metric, but i have no idea what size they are. As you know, i need 6 of them. Thank you for the great idea and the detailed video! Much love!
@@chadscpd ❤️🙏🙇♂️
@chadscpd i believe they are M4 screws but i don't remember if the length was 8mm or 12mm. I went into an Ace Hardware with 1 stock screw and the frame part that had the threaded screws and started to test fit different size screws till i found the one that fits. 😅🙏
Truly appreciate you bro this very helpful I just brought my inmotion RS midnight
Thank you very much, i hope you get to enjoy your RS. Its been such an awesome scooter to me, the only advice i would give os keeping it in dual motor mode as ive seen reports of others doing single motor mode and pushing the scooter to its limits and burning out the motor or controller out. So be careful my bro and enjoy the awesome ride. Make sure you download the Inmotion App so you can unlock the speed modes and be able to adjust the Torque to your liking, i have mine set at 25% for the front and rear and rhe braking on the app set to the standard 50% front and 50% rear. 😎👊
Hey bro I ordered the part from inmotion it’s been almost 2weeks I’ve received no response from anybody is there any way you can get me some info
I can try to see if they respond to me. It did take me about 3 weeks to completely receive my full order from them as they ship from china but send me your order number via email at theaverageguy1983v3@gmail.com
And ill see if this affiliation with them can help get some updates for you. Its worth a try. 😎👊
That’s a $600 camera your family that’s a pocket three holy crud that has some good video
Indeed it does much better than my smartphone and even my Sony ZV-E10 i got wirh the kit lens. Its an awesome little camera.
Where did you get the wolf king light? How much was it? Great videos btw

looking good 👍🏻
Thank you very much. 🙇♂️🙏
Great tutorial. Found you through ginger, where you answered a light question. Subscribed.
🙏🙇♂️
Dude! Such a great video. Nice lesson today.
Thank you very much, im hoping more people find it helpful. 🙏🙇♂️
Man. I’m having a tough time. It looks like new scooters have epoxy in the void area holding the wires and that epoxy keeps the back plug secured beyond being able to get out even with a flathead screwdriver prying on it. Have you experienced this yet?
@kriswibbenhorstermeister9885 i have indeed. I basically used my soldering gun to semi soften up the epoxy which did work and then carefully lift up with a small flat head screw driver so that i wouldn't damage the circuit board. It did take some time to soften the epoxy as its technically made to last a very long time and not really be removable but it is possible to get it off.
Update: I had to drill out the epoxy. Then the epoxy came out in hunks, and finally, a large hunk containing the wires. I had to break the epoxy around the wires with some robogrips lol. The positive wire got severed, so I had to shorten both wires by about 1/2”. Hopefully the wire is long enough to plug in, or it’s another light I’ll have to order and try again. How much fun was this? Hahahaha
@kriswibbenhorstermeister9885 oh wow lol you definitely had to do some extra work. Yeah from level of funnest from 1 to 10 it was like a fun level 6 lol
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 that’s an accurate measurement of fun on the scale. Lol. I even burnt my finger on the soldering gun. Yeah, I’d say at least a 7.
Great tutorial on this headlight swap!! One tip that I use when doing wiring work similar to this on my motorcycle: In the case of this wire swap, I'd put a real small "zip tie" on the wire cable where it comes thru the LED board, and lightly tug the cable till the zip tie is against the LED board. Doing that prevents the wire from being pulled out of the light housing, which would possibly break the wire off of the solder joints. Just a suggestion.
Great video!! New Sub here. 😊
@Ray-xx5np that's definitely a very good suggestion. Thank you for that. Hopefully others read this as well and use the tip as a extra security step.
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 Thank you!! 😊 I appreciate the time you take explaining the things you do on your scooter. I just bought an RS, and Im waiting on delivery. The Kaabo light is project #1 when I get the RS, followed by a pair of PMT slicks (its only gonna be street ridden). Speaking of which, do you know the the maximum size PMT slick that'll fit on the RS? "Scoota Gang" put 110-55-6.5 on it, which look awesome, but he did have to notch the rear fender to fit them. Also, I wish PMT gave some explanation of the differences between the T41, the T4, the R slicks. They all have the same description!! Anyway, thanks again!!
@Ray-xx5np no problem, as for Fitment of PMTs yes, the realt max size so that you wont have any rubbing but still have a good rire size 100/55 R6.5 it will basically have rhe3same gap that is currently on rhe stock tires of the RS to the inside part of rhe fenders.
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 Thank you, my friend. Appreciate that info!! 😊👍
Fantastic!
Thank you so much! 🙇♂️🙏
What is the total wattage for the gtr headlight, i may do the same upgrade but with a light bar
@Primevision78 hi, that's a good question, but unfortunately, i don't have an answer for that as i can't find the specs of it on the box which i still have. It just says it last 50,000 hours before it burns out. Sorry man. 🙏😬
@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 Thank you, Average Guy... Much love
Hey bro, hope you’re feeling better! If were to install this on my Burn E 2, would I get the same high light and strobe feature?
Very nice 🫵🏻♥️🇧🇬
😁🙏
Man I put a Kaabo light on my varla eagle one pro, but I just cut the wires in the middle and soldered the new leads on.
curious, after i did this install, my horn is intermittent. anyone else have that same issue?
@Boosted_Spyder not at all. You might have to check the wiring on the horn, but this mod shouldn't affect anything, especially the horn. I know i had to crimp down my wires for the horn a tiny bit more out of the box in order for it to have a proper connection using some pliers just to give the edges a tiny bit of a squeeze so it stays locked in place but that was it. Hopefully, that will solve your issue. If not, you may have a defective horn and will need to be replaced. As long as you are under warranty, that should be covered.
@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 they changed the RS headlight sealant for the wire pass thru fyi... mine was packed with epoxy so I had to cut my wires off rather break it free from RTV.
Horn: I ended up removing the horn and de-soldering the leads, replaced with crimp on connectors and she seems good now. Thinking bad solder joint from factory
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 I wish there was a way to just do single mode for the light rather cycle high/low/strobe. Lol
@Boosted_Spyder yeah it got a little annoying for me as well lol i do have to power cycle through the light switch just to get the light i want 😅
@Boosted_Spyder no way! I guess they wanted to make sure no water or moisture gets through the inside. Mine had a good amount of moisture in it which i was very surprised to see but that lets me know that these scooters come in a container by Ship so that explains why it takes months to get these scooters delivered after ordering some times.
I'm interested in your dash cam💁🙏❤️
@humboldthunterfishfool4817 ah thats the Wolfbox G930 2 channel Mirror dashcam, i got it with the upgraded WDR camera which is built better and can handle my scooter Vibrations without falling apart like rhe smaller one that comes with the dashcam 😅
Here is a link if you would like to check it out. The tricky part is installing it on the scooter. You have to get creative with the installation as its meant for a car and the motorcycle style dashcams are super expensive.

@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 thanks for all the information and the links bud, appreciate it 💯🤘
@@humboldthunterfishfool4817 😎👊
If I was close by I would of took u mines I have a mar XTR. It would of looked very good with that gtr head light
👊😎
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 so mines is a double bar and I Wana mount a light bar across in the middle what would be a good suggestion?
@PallutedLife650 sorry for the long wait. I was looking at a few options and it seems the best way to get something on your style of handlebar is it does NOT come with a small screw hole location for the original headlight, would be to get a 90 degree handlebar extension x 2. And then run a bar across that to add a light but its not that great for a couple of reasons.
1. It will be costly to get everything.
2. It may not look that great onces installed.
3. You will have to retro fit it to make it work
4. You'll then have to buy the led light of choice. 😬 to me that seems like a lot of steps to make it work.
But here is a link to that product you can tey finding the size you need.

@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 thank you very much 😊 I really appreciate it
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 ain't gone lie I thought about just zip tying a rounded stick to hold it lol
I just got the Teverun supreme and the headlight on it as bad as yours. I will be upgrading as well. As well as the horn. Thanks for the video.
Awesome! The Teverun supreme is nice. Did you git the 7260R? I was interested in that one too but alot of users want them to improve the steering damper as they said it wobbles too much at high speeds. The same goes for my RS too.
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 I didn’t go with the 7260R I just went with the Fighter Supreme. The 7260R kind of scares me. It doesn’t seem to be very stable considering it requires 2 steering dampers.
@mobettaspice i totally understand, thats one of the reasons why i havent tried getting one either. I was interested because of the 60 Amp hour battery. I figured if my Inmotion RS being 72 volts at 40 Amp hours gave me 60 miles of range in Eco mode which goes to 19 Mph then getting another scooter with 72 volts at 60 Amp hours would give me 90 miles of range at the same speed lol but then i seen the instability of that 7260R. I was also interested in the Slak Core 1220 scooter which has the same specs as the 7260R but its $8,000 and it doesn't even have a proper display to show you battery stats and mileage, no turns signals, no brake light or tail light, no headlight. When i talked to the Slak Core manufacturer they told me that they can put all that on the scooter but at an extra charge i was like Nope! Lol
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 so let me get this straight. After paying $8,000 for the scooter they are going to charge you extra for what’s important to the person operating the scooter. I would have said nope too. As for the 7260R I stayed far away from that one. Things weren’t very positive on Reddit too about that model. But keep up the good work bro. That spill you took really woke me up to more safety gear being more cautious on the shortest runs.
@mobettaspice yep i though they were crazy for adding necessary stuff for an extra charge. As for the extra gear, ywah man im glad you are going to consider getting more, i truly regret my decision of thinking i wasnt going to need gear for a short 2 block trip to a pharmacy only to get my self in a mess. Ill be sure to share a video on my safety gear, there are a small group of people that want to see what i wear now for safety. I think a video and links to amazon for all the stuff i wear is appropriate to do. Specially a BIG guy like me. It took me a bit to find something that fits me which i was very embarrassed about but glad i found some gear at my current 287lbs size. I got the green light from mh physical therapist to start going for my walks again so hopefully i can catch up to my weight loss. 😎👊
great job!!
Thank you. 🙇♂️🙏
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 About to do this today.. If it's just 2 wires, I think I'm just going to cut the cables and join them, electrical tap / shrink wrap the whole thing. Do you see any issues with this approach?
@@asong26 not really. That will work too 😁👍
