Should I stick it in the front or the rear?

I'm going to try out a helmet mounted light this weekend. The light is powered by the quad, so I'll be somewhat tethered to it. Should I wire it so that I plug the light into the front of the quad, or to the rear?
Two '06 700R SEs

Both with:                                          One also with:

GYT-R Engine/frame skid plate             GYT-R Nerf bars
GYT-R A-arm guards                           OMI Steering stem mount

I would say front would be less of a problem.  Run the wires up to the steering stem and out the center like a tether kill switch then attach them to your body loosely.  I just used my Trail Tech bar mounted lights for the first time last weekend and they were awesome.  10x better than the stock crappy headlights.

liquor up front, poker in the rear :thumbs:

:grin_nod: :thumbs: :clap:

I would definetly put the wires up front.  Easier to mount while sitting on the quad!! I used a coil type cable to wire my camera on my street bike!!

Mount the wires up front, easier to access! :thumbs:
