Post by: Duneatic70 on March 25, 2013, 12:56:47 pm: I run an earthworks lithium battery & all lights are LED!!! I rode the bike for a week & never had to charge the battery!! The battery has a special fuse in it to allow you to charge it with a regular automati c charger!!! I run the headlight with a led lighted toggle switch, led whip & led tail light are on all the time until the quick disconnect is unhooked!! No issues with the batter holding its charge!! I payed $150 for the battery, $5 for the switch, $20 for the tail light, $97 for the led light bar is a spot beam 12 diode light!!!! Very cheap & low maintenance!! If the battery needs to charged it can be during the day!!!!

Ha!! The pink is just for a joke!! The light bar is off ebay & im just running an overlay light harness for the lights & lithium battery on this zilla & my Pure Irish Hell zilla!! Didnt want to mess with the oem harness!!!
Glad your not using the pink. It has it's uses(tricking men into thinking marriage is the thing to do) but not on a Zilla.
Do you mean the lights run strictly on battery? How much life do you get out of it.

Title: Re: Lets see your Zilla
Post by: LT500Kid on March 22, 2013, 04:07:28 am: They are not welded together It is a Q pipe and silencer. Matt from sheared actually made the pipe and he made me a turned down end to trick the dnr at silver lk. they see the end and assume it has a spark arrestor. Its worked so far. its black in the pic cause the chrome peeled off the first one and he sent that till he could chrome another for me.
Title: Re: Lets see your Zilla
Post by: Buckeye513 on March 21, 2013, 05:41:42 pm: Lt500kid is your pipe and silencer welded together? I don't see a coupler. And that looks like a q pipe but is that a q silencer too?
Title: Re: Lets see your Zilla
Post by: LT500Kid on March 21, 2013, 04:35:40 pm: It's an slc +4 ladder style uses a round Lonestar carrier. Lance does nice work I have one on my hybrid too. His weld are perfect and he polishes everything before caroming. Real happy with his work.

Post by: SBLT500R on March 10, 2013, 08:41:06 am: ken500r, your rear shock rezzie is on backwards and upside down. if you fix it it will fit better and the line will clear the exhaust.

Post by: Julle74 on March 09, 2013, 03:01:49 pm: My 88 the day i got it 2 years ago. Engine dident run and pretty much everything worn out. And a pic were i am now, still alot of work left but i am getting there D?
Title: Lets see your Zilla
Post by: Dezsled on March 09, 2013, 12:00:22 pm: It's cool to see others zillas out there. Mine started out pretty rough, lots of worn out parts, **** plastic, tired engine...

Before

After

(http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j300/Dezsled/photo87-1.jpg)

Still engine work to go, another pipe showing up...

I should have bought the LT500 a long time ago, I've spent less than half on my Zilla than what I paid for the LTR-450. And it's way more entertaining to ride!
