Additional lights

Light bar on the front plus marker lights on the rear

I have purchased a Yamaha 125cc YBR Custom, and I like many others have problems with the lights.

I purchased the bike 7 months ago and have added a light bar on the front with two 12v 15w halogen spots and two 12v 15w marker lights on rear.

The problem now is that after an hour the battery goes flat. I need to upgrade the alternator, but cannot find the specifications of the actual alternator that is already fitted, and not sure if I can upgrade to a larger unit.

To solve the problem at the moment I have disconnected the headlamp bulb and use only the spots, but when I get home I must put the battery on charge ready for the following day. So it is not a final solution for my problem.

The future plan now is for the engine to be chromed, then more blue LED pin lights will be hidden in the frame work so that it shows or reflects on the engine at night time.

The wheels are at the moment alloy but these I would like to have chromed as well.

I have put up some extra cash for a few other items as well but do not know if they will go ahead.

When the bike is finished and up to a good standard it will be shown at the famous Ace Cafe in London, and hopefully win a prize, that's my aim to build a show bike.
