HIDs on Comet 450 Its one of the best pencil beams with a long distance spread. If u arm it with a HID then its an over kill Its so powerful even with a H3 55W so imagine with a HID
As a responsible rider you should not promote such mods IMHO
. And I honestly wish some good Samaritan should take care of it soon
.
My hands are itching to go for Hella on my bike but there are many Hella Specific thieves are here to snatch it within minutes even from a car. One of my friend lost his Comet 200 from his car within 2 weeks of installation and that too from a crowded public place within 10 mins.
But once u see the performance of this you'll die for it and the fear of getting stolen am backing from it. Anyways am thinking of another Hella FF50 as an aux lamp for my car which is very compact too.
Here's it:
See the beam spread pattern:
This is more than enough to screw the happiness of a casual high beam rider
Lets forget the adamant morons for our happiness and safety sake. Once I had a bitter experience from a truck who was deliberately using all his 4X130W, I flashed my 2 spots which was aligned slightly above the normal height. Once I've finished 2-3 flashes he put another 2 more sets from the hood which was secretly installed and aimed parallel. I couldn't see a thing for a few secs and some how managed safely.
Set back will be 5k and the plus point is this one uses a H7 bulb so the beam spread quality is awesome than with a H3.
BTW, Comet 450 is too big for a bike IMO. But its like a laser beam in action with enough lighting up the surroundings.
Shree check with a 90/100 on city conditions before proceeding with a 100W HID, I think it may fry your battery at startup unless u dont keep the revs up.
You guys are sadistic nuts to go for a 100W HID on a reflector without that you can make any highbeam A$$ H@L@ with a good aux lamp with halos like Drji pointed out.

without that you can make any highbeam A$$ H@L@ with a good aux lamp with halos like Drji pointed out.for sane city and highway use we are still using halogen with relay 55/60 to keep it sane.but for some off road action where we stay a place called WESTBENGAL
,where roads dosent exist after the main city,these are need then overkill.yes the throw is too good.i have one in my pulsar and feel the light is very nice.the hid dosent flood it self all over.
in my opinion also the 450 is bigger but there is no smaller unit then this at least in the price product ratio.
ff 50 is good but not great,sorry if i dissapoint you.better go for hella ff 300.its the best among 50/100/300.
50 is not that great and you will feel the pain once you install.
yes the throw is better in case of h 7 ,basically it widens the beam a bit more.at least thats my observation when i checked lastime in hella shop.
i seriously suggest you to go for hella 300 or at least 200,.put some hid capsule inside on the lower ratings,it will be very potent tool.
and please dont say we are going overboard ,see this.if you are unhappy as we are using hids,fine i am happy if you can invent a electrical system which can pull 2 55/60 bulbs halogen effortlessly the i will ditch all the hids,i promise you that.you know its not possible to produce that much power without getting drastic,so be it.also hids are not for city use i told you that it s only for highway use,a single lane highway.i hope you got my feelings.
