Step 1: Parts List & Bike Preparation

Installation Tips:

 

There are two main parts to the installation of your new 

Clearwater Lights. The mechanical portion, and the electrical portion. 
With this manual, we will go over the basics of both which should allow 
you to get your lights up and running. If you purchased a bracket made 
specifically for your bike, refer to our manuals online for that specific 
installation at: 

www.clearwaterlights.com

Note:

 

Motorcycle needs to be turned on before the lights will function.

Bike Preparation:

•  First, park the motorcycle on hard pavement or concrete to insure the 
bike will be stable during the installation. If you can mount the bike on a 
stand with tie-down straps, this will help secure the motorcycle.

•  Follow the manufacturers guidelines for disconnecting the battery. This 
is important to prevent damage to the electrical system.

Erica / Krista / Sevina Technical:

 

Erica / Krista / Sevina are very bright LED auxiliary lights. Do not 

use these with oncoming traffic present unless the dimmer is turned 
down all the way. Krista / Erica / Sevina are designed as off road only 
light’s due to the powerful light output and specific beam pattern they 
boast. The wide circular pattern is very useful on mountain roads when 
on a motorcycle, as it keeps light on the road and in the tree canopy. As 
the bike leans, lights are still focused on the road. Be certain to use the 
lights in a manner that does not blind oncoming traffic.

 

Erica / Krista / Sevina can also be used in a “low” beam mode 

and a “high” beam mode. The factory handlebar high beam switch is 
used to select the two different Erica / Krista / Sevina modes. 

 

Krista light output is about 2400 lumens each light while only 

using 35 watts of power. Erica light output is about 6000 lumens each 
light while using about 60 watts of power. Sevina commands about 7000 
lumens each light using about 70 watts of power. Erica / Krista / Sevina 
are easy to install and have many, many uses.
