    In Bangalore, Traffic police celebrate once in a while a week or two catching HID's. Normally name it as "Drive against Blue/white light". Even they announce in paper when they start this drive. That is the reason why there is dip in HID users in Bangalore as per my observations. So nothing legal about HID's.

      I guess the Traffic Police cops here are liberal with no such nonsense celebrations!
      Good for the riders though..

      There's a rule about illumination..

      The Brighter You Go, The Whiter You Go!

      So best stick to stock bulbs..because the Osram Nightbreakers or the Philips Xtream Or High Intensity Discharge, everything is white and illegal for you!

      The best I can suggest is Osram NB at 1600 INR.

        And if its written on 6th service that we need to change the oil filter then the company will charge for that too.


        my oil filter was been changed in the 2nd servicing
        total cost = oil change + oil filter change + consume able = 360

                i think u r just arguing uselessly, who says whiter is brighter? compare lumes of a CFL and bulb....as per wavelength and doppler effect red should be with most visibility for distance... Osram NB and Philips xtreme are not as bright as HID, there is a difference between Bright and White!

                    check ur battery from a local battery dealer...see if it is up to par... what you can also check is the catalytic converter...see if there is excess carbon on it...ask your svc to do it...had the same prblm...cleaning the converter did the job...
