CSC TT250 Commuter Upgrades

[Goob]

Hello, I am re-posting this under Dual Sport...originally put under Videos/Photos, but I thought maybe fewer folks would look there.

Well, it has been about a month and 300 miles of commuting (and some riding around)! I live in Denver and rode 5 days last week, and 4 days each of the two weeks before. The forecast looks good for 4 days next week.

It was as low as 22 degrees in the AM, but we usually get a 20 degree rise by the time I leave work. Only an 8 mile RT, so the cold 4 miles in the AM isn't bad.

I have made a few upgrades for the commuter use, as I will likely never use off-road. These include:

* LED headlight, 15W, 1600 Lumens (vs. 35W 800 lumen stock)

* LED brake light bulb replacement (has the brake flashing built in)

* extra brake/tail light below license plate... I found a better one that is for trucks that will replace this one...has 30 LEDs + 6 license plate.

* 20W x 2 LED front spots (1600 lumens each, I set up the halos to flash all the time using a CSC turn signal relay)

* Mega-Tube tool "box" to replace the small stock one

* "BigAnt" folding milk-crate for carrying capacity (and acts like a regular rack when folded). I carried 3 bags of groceries, 12-pack and 6-pack in this. One week of groceries for 3 people.

Future additions will include heated gloves because the grips won't keep my finger tips warm below 35 degrees (hoping this is a Christmas present) and Continental GO! tires.
