We were riding Wolfpen Gap and ran across a girl with a new Scrambler with the headlight grill. She was pulled over looking at her busted headlight lens. A rock smaller than the 1/2" space in the grill smacked it.

There are a lot of headlight screens on the market, the trick is finding one that mounts reliably. Some are an absolute joke, the way they attach.

I replaced my headlight with an LED. I have the original. Free to a good home, just pay the shipping.


We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

Just had a rock about the size of a small red potato take out the lens on the Honda. Honda wont sell just the lens. Had to buy the whole case for $100, yes that is ONE HUNDRED BUCKS. 1st time ever though. Your grill does look nice varmax
