How long does the battery last? The battery will last around five hours at full strength and about eight hours altogether. That’s more than enough for occasional dusk or night use that most riders would actually require, then it’s simply a case of giving the batter y a recharge. The recharge can be done while the batter y stays installed in the unit and of course a charger is supplied.

Preston Petty Products can also supply a bright LED bulb for the taillight which actually has a red bulb and which is dual filament so it can be both taillight and stop light.

Overall, it is a very well thought out and well made unit, top marks!

MOTOCROSS - THE GOLDEN ERA

David Dewhurst’s upcoming book, Motocross - The Golden Era, is billed as the biggest book in motocross history and it will most likely match the claim! David was in a class of his own in the ‘70s and ‘80s as a photographer in the USA, capturing the sport we all love. This book will be the culmination of decades of work at motocross events and will run to 480 pages, with over 600 images.

Right now, he’s offering a 25% saving (until 1st November) if you pre-order the book on his website, with the book due to become available in early November.

David also has a unique ‘add-on’, as he explains - “For those with a little more cash in the bank, I am also offering two very unique books for US$15,000 each. Along with the book, these two lucky buyers will get to spend an evening with Roger DeCoster, Broc Glover and Rick Johnson. All proceeds go to charities of the riders’ choice.”
