It changed the NS looks (grabbed many eyes, esp the angel eye). Hoping to test it on long rides at country sides soon.
    Pictures attached...

    I have installed bi-xenon projector and by night time it has been pain in ass for coming vehicles from opposite side even for truckers, quite risky though[emoji19] . So i wanted to adjust projector lamp to the lower side, if it is possible??

      I have set the high beam ( of my 100/90W H4) specifically to hit eyes of people with wrongly set projectors. 2000+ lumens from my headlight straight on the face makes sure they cant see anything, and think about setting their's right.

      Real pain bro. Get it adjusted asap, it is possible to adjust.

        Bro, What do you mean lower side?. Do you want to adjust the beam height?. In one of the threads I remember seeing a picture showing about a screw underneath the head unit for adjustments.

        If this is what you are looking for. But don't know if this works or has worked for somebody.


        In general, all HID projectors are a pain in the eyes for the incoming driver... Do you have the same effect with low beam mode?. Mine, I couldn't distinguish myself between the two, only some noticeable difference in throw range...

          I have tried it already but adjustment was quite negligible i can say...that adjustable screw is specially made for stock or may be it works for hid but not for projector. And there is no almost difference in high beam and low beam.

            Most of the HID projectors are bi-xenons (which you can control low\high beam). Every HID has projector attached. I find only minor differences when switching the beam. I find like my beam has more intensity (focus), but doesn't travel far or long. It just moves few feet above but doesn't cover a longer range. How about yours in your low beam mode?.

              That screw works well for stock because the screw adjusts reflector position (along with bulb, of course). This does very less difference for Hid, as you pointed out. Have to remove the front assembly and adjust the projector lens (along with Hid, of course)

                As i said my low and high beams are minimal difference in throw ,even low beam tends to blind incoming vechiles

                  Agree with front assembly removal part , will must try. With projector installed our beast drawing more attention but have to lookout some drawbacks also.

                    Well nothing is perfect, as such is for this HID. My case, it doesn't blind anyone instead it has a reduced throw range. Even on high\low beam it look almost same with just ~20% boost and coverage. But I feel that's enough, as I don't want to light up the entire road.... Use high beam only when required for situations.. I see most of the bikers use high beam and many even know less about it...

                    In your case, you need to dismantle and adjust it accordingly. But I'm not sure if it DIY. Why don't you just check with some workshops?. Of course not with SVC... Post your results after this.

                      Ofcoure i shall take it to known mechanic or else it will be disaster.

                      Will post the result.

                        Sure you do.
                        Strange, I just noticed yday. The throw range did not increase much for high beam, but the manual says 8/18W, which I don't understand how?. At 10W higher than low beam power (8W), the high beam mode should blast the hell out of it, but still almost looks as same power and brightness as Low beam, didn't justify much, other than saying chinese" . Well, i can see the roads better than stock that's it, but nothing much for L\H beam. Or maybe this is not a bi-xenon?, not sure

                          It appears brighter because the intensity you see is the power divided by area. Low beam covers a smaller area, so appears brighter. Same as counting coconuts on a tree 20m high with your 1W Led torch. Area of light is very small in the case of torch. To see the difference of 8/18W, keep your bike 2m in front of a wall and check the area of light

                          Edit: the gap btw projecror lens and bulb can be adjusted in come models, you can get a torch-like high beam if you wish so

                            That's exactly what I thought. However, for the long beam with 10W more power, it is supposed to cover farther distance(even at same brightness or lesser), but it doesn't that's the case.

                              Should be a bi-xenon in which the bulb moves forward and backward for low and high beam (small magnetic push-pull assembly inside the unit)

                              Edit: another system moves a small metal shield in front of the bulb for low beam to deflect the light downwards

                                The projectors with shield to deflect light of low and high beam have much better throw and intensity of light compared to normal hid moving backwards and forwards ..
