I believe the ballast to my right head light has burned up. I can swap the bulbs and the one on the left side always works. I also checked power to the ballast and I'm good there but nothing coming out of it. So in my mind it's bad. Now here is my second problem I have no idea who's kit it is or where to start looking to replace it. Here's a few pictures of it and if you guys know who's kit it might be please let me know.
Thanks

Yep, sure sounds like a DOA ballast. If it's a Fleabay set, doesn't surprise me as I had the same issue. You could just get a pair from Fleabay as replacements. Consider these CCC ballasts as disposable. You could get better ones but, like anything, you'll pay for it.
 
Ya I have no idea where these came since there were on my old nytro that someone else installed then relocated them to this one. I need find out if their 35 or 55 watt as well so I can get the correct ballast.
Thanks for the heads up.
I think they may have come from a vendor on TY possibly.
 
One more thing both HID bulbs are run off of just one stock bulb plugs. Seamed strange to me but I never messed with them before.
 
I'll do that.
 
Rockmiester got me all taken care of ! Thanks guys
 
Only one headlight plug need to be plugged into harness. That is correct, this simply controls the hi/lo beam feature.
 
Now if you use rocks patch cables could i put his HIDs in my IQR? With the patch cables you don't need the 12v power.
And yes I know I own the two biggest money pit sleds out there LOL!

I would contact him to be sure it will work in a 2stroke.
