I am sure that it has a H4 holder ... because cars generally use that only, and that holder is capable of holding a 100/90 bulb also ..
So check out with the mechanic ... but dont put a 100/90 to ur bike ... that will spoil ur battery for sure ....
If u r from bangalore, then go to J C Road, and u will find a lot of mechanics good ones for this ... get it done ... they also wil help u if u want to fix a HID ....
so just take ur time and do all the research and then go for the change ....
i hope this helps______________________________________________________________

Not sure about this. As i did not try this out man ..... But one fact is clear is that, i think you have made a mistake by changing to the the Ambassador reflector. Just try once with the Classic reflector ( if you want to though ) ...Originally posted by thunderider View Post

1) I want to change the handle, and i THINK harey's Fatboy kinda handle would help. I need your suggestion in it since you said you are a tourer and you might be knowing a thing or two about handle comfort.
2) The headlight, Phillips xtreme 60/55... how much would it cost? Can it be fit without other changes to the headlight assembly in my 2011 TBTS?Royal Enfield for Life.Comment

Hey Guys,
Doesnt the Thunderbird come with a projector type sealbeam/headlamp?
with stock bulb (55/60w inside a projector) isnt it supposed to provide better lighting?Presence of MIND and self CONFIDENCE is the primary aspect You need to be on road, not what brand your riding gears are.
If you lack these two then DONT

But the handle looks good to me.
For phillips Xtreme, the price will be around 450 at the phillips dealer shop. Try not to get the same from accessories shop. The will ask for at least 600. The original price is around 450.______________________________________________________________

You will get all these in the show room or in the service centers itself.Originally posted by satyenb View Post
And the prices are all the same.
Sorry mate for the late reply. The shop is in J C Road. From the J C Road signal, take a left, and then second left. The name of the shop starts with Chawla. Just ask any one they will show you.Originally posted by mempheS.D View PostCan you please tell me which is the shop you are referring to?
