How often do you ride at night ?
I was out last night in the pitch black. Headlight was every bit as good as my Merc with bi xenon

 

[Martinsmith]

Everyday as I work nights ��

Martin its sounds like youre the man to do it and give us a write up

I dont ride enough at night but for someone like you this is a must (and it looks cool)

 

[Martinsmith]

Ok why not I was just hoping someone else may have already done it and know if it fits in the headlight cowling

I've just fitted these, from Ebay, as they give a whiter light without the hassle of going HID, all for less than £6:00 for 2 bulbs. Yet to be tried out in the dark yet though.

You guys want to check your alignment. I'll bet you're blinding oncoming cars and will need to adjust the beam downward. It's all to do with the relationship of the filament to the reflector (which is now significantly different to the original design).

You have to be really careful with eBay bulbs which are not major known brands. A riding partner bought some for his Hayabusa and they were worse than standard. Bulbs like Osram Nightbreakers or the ones I use, Ring Automotive Xenon +130 are really good. I do a lot of riding in unlit country areas and can vouch for both brands.

just a quick note and i have said this before on another post but just fitting a HID bulb into a standard headlight without the projector to go with it is not legal in most countries. I have fitted the full HID and projectors with red demon eyes and white angel eyes to the "F" model. I can say the lighting on my bike after the MOD is perfect and is 100% better than the stock setup and as an added bonus both lights are on with dip headlight rather than the standard one light so it looks better.

How did you manage to get both lights to work ? Is it just a matter of changing a bulb to a twin element bulb ?

Anyone done this to the gsxs1000? Any suggestions for a good quality kit?
