What now? Caught a rock or something. Glad the light caught it and not my pretty face but Not looking forward to a $500 replacement. The light still works but moisture gets in and builds up quickly.

 

Wow - sorry this happened to you.

When I rode Wings, I had a headlight guard to avoid such incidents. I may have to look at this for my Harley.

Anyone here tried the headlight guards?

 

My insurance covers glass breakage - no deductible. Might be worth checking?

 

Sorry about the broken lens-but your right--better that then in the face---That really sucks.
I had the front of my bike covered with Xpel the clear film to protect the paint from road CHIPS and on the headlight and driving lights they placed a thicker verson of it to keep this type of thing from happening. Hope I never get to find out if it really works and protects from big rocks.-
Good luck on getting it fixed.

 

Seal it with clear bathtub caulk untill You decide what You want to do.

 

Hopefully you saved the stock one. I saved mine for this reason as well as putting it back on down the road if/when I sell or trade it in. If insurance doesn't cover it maybe consider the JW speaker? It's essentially the same light and considerably cheaper.

If it fixed the boat with the screen door for a bottom, it should take care of that light with ease.

 

 

Jw speaker evo2 is the same light but newer model. They redesigned the gaps so that there's no blind spots. I just picked on up for 320.

 

That is definitely something I will check on! Didn't even think about that.
