Can you please elaborate on the flickering part.

Is it to say that the beam is not constant, as if sparking? Or is it to say that the focus of the light is shifting slightly with higher revs??

You cou'd be having a cable grounding problem... I guess the groind cable on your bike is loose.. I had this problem on a halogen bulb.. Maybe you could also be facing the same problem..

guys yesterday i spent my halfday with the mechanic checked all the nuts of fairing tried washers but in the end the root cause of flickering was bulb itself as the bulb i installed is hi/lo bulb which works on some kind of push & pull mechanism, it is single filament bulb for the pic link is given below

there is little play in the bulb for this mechanism to work, so i do not have any other option but to live with that flickering, searching for a fixed hid bulb in which at low you getyellow light & at high beam hid work, in this kind of bulb the filament is fixed so no flickering issue.

Buddy... I think I know the issue here... take a look at post 224 and fwd in the thread Basic of Projectors, HID and their Installation
If you have the same module, you can just open it up, pull everthing (except the wiring) apart, put them back. I did that, and my flickering problem just vanished!!!
(You may put a drop of quick fix or silicon sealant at the hinge to reduce its free play a bit, and make sure that you dont break the base when screwing the base back on...)

Good luck. And yeah, I may be lucky, but everyone else with the same thing confirms there is a lil bit of flickering.

And if are intending to get the HID with both halo and xenon, be warned that the halo output is very weak. I can assure you that you wont be satisfied at all...

cant fix that fith glue if did so it wont be able to work for high beam, just came back frm the market, fixed K&N filter & wool in silencer, pickup is great for 2003 bike can now easily pop a front wheel.

guys i am facing a new isuue today i drove my bike for half n hour with HID on, RPM meter needle stuck to 0 horn became week. Please sugest what should i do it is because i installed some chineese ballast or by bulb is faulty also my high beam is not working as the bulb is not pulling back, but initially it was working please suggest as i mostly drive bike in night.

Bro.. its your battery.. its drained so much so that it cant support the combined load...
Can you please explain how you have installed the HID? have you changed to full DC? What did you do to increase the charging rate for the battery?

Post your problems in the Let there be Light or Hid projector help or Basic of Projectors, HID and their Installation thread
There are experts troubleshooting issues regarding HIDs in these threads...
