If you use a Light Bee or Ultra Bee around the farm, the bike straight off the showroom floor is only half the equation. Paddocks are soft, footwork is muddy, and stock checks do not stop when the sun goes down. Thus, we came up with solutions on the common problems most farm bikes faces on the farm.
Kickstand (Enlarge) Support
The problem: the stock kickstand foot is small. On tar seal or a hard yard it is fine. On wet grass, silt, or freshly cultivated ground, it sinks straight in and the bike tips. Anyone who has propped a motorcycle up to check a fence line only to find it lying on its side five minutes later knows the drill.
The fix: an enlarged base plate that bolts onto the existing kickstand and spreads the load over a much wider footprint. Same lean angle, same fold action, just far less chance of the bike punching a hole in soft ground.
- Available for Ultra Bee, $30.99
- Available for Light Bee X / L1E, $27.99
- Bolt-on fit, no modification to the kickstand itself
- Genuine part, backed by the standard 1 year warranty
Verdict: a cheap fix for a genuinely annoying problem. If you park on grass more often than concrete, this pays for itself the first time it stops your bike going over.

Sturdy Footpegs for Farm Bike (Pair)
The problem: stock footpegs are built for riding, not for standing on for an hour while you move stock or check troughs. Muddy boots slip, and the pegs themselves take a hammering doing farm work.
The fix: a wider, reinforced peg pair built specifically for the load and grip demands of farm use. More surface area under your boot means more confidence standing up on rough ground, and the stronger construction handles the extra knocks that come with gates, wire, and general paddock life.
- Light Bee X / L1E fitment, sold as a pair
- $89.99
- Built for farm-specific wear, not just trail riding
Verdict: a simple swap that makes standing on the pegs for long stretches more comfortable, especially in wet boots.
GiGigo Gi02 Head Light
The problem: early starts and late finishes are part of the job. Stock checks before sunrise, calving watch after dark, the standard headlight was never built with that kind of use in mind.
The fix: the Gi02 is a step up in output, with a combined spot and flood beam that gives you both distance and spread. Three modes let you switch between low beam, high beam, and combined depending on what you are doing and where you are looking.
- Fits Light Bee X
- Product ID: IRSUR800104
- Plug and play install, no extra switch wiring required
Verdict: the single biggest upgrade on this list for anyone doing dawn or dusk farm work on a regular basis.
Turning your Surron into a proper farm bike does not need to happen all at once. Start with whichever problem you actually have, kickstand sinking, pegs wearing out, or not being able to see in the dark, and build from there.
