    This is the best that I could find so far. Height is around 31 mm. You need to file the corner on the bottom of the bulb to make it fit. Still I am not satisfied with the fitment.

        or did you do any mods.
        Thanks,

        Hi Rohit,

        No, there are no mounting options available for K33N hence no direct fit. I had to make one from my fabricator.
        Though Kappa makes hard luggage mounts for their K22 hard panniers.
        Here is the list of all the compatible luggage options & mounts for Kappa for BN302, but I'm not sure all of these are available in India.

        Yura - Your bike setup looks fantastic....
        Hi,

        I'm not sure if K33Ns are available in India. I came to know that a guy in Singapore had installed Kappa boxes on Pulsar. So I reached out to him during my official tour to Singapore & got these from there.
        The lights I bought it from Crossroad but I think these are available at Big Bad Bikes as well.

As I would like to use these instead of the regular headlights, which suck, to be honest. If I have a switchable option I can run on the spots without disturbing oncoming traffic and switch on the floods when needed.
        Do you have any idea of a model with two separate controls for flood and spot?
        Hi Binil,
        Don't remove the stock headlight. The auxiliary lamps though made by the best in market can go kaput & when it does the stock light can save the night.
        I had bad experience when I was using HID on FZ & since then kept stock light with auxiliary set up.
        The aux lamps on my set up work only when pilot light is on & when I do not need those I switched them off & continue to use stock.

        Regards,
        Abhijit

          I also have same opinion. Stock headlights are life savers. Maximum we can attempt is changing the bulbs. If noting works stock headlamp will save us.

            I have no plans to remove the headlight. That will stay as stock. What I mean is that I would like to use an Aux setup permanently as a HEadlight unit with high and low. Stock headlight stays as it is as the backup.

              Hi Binil,

              In that case add two lamps, one on each side. Either different or same intensity but positioned differently.
              Use one switch to operate both. In one switch position only one will stay on & in other position both will be on.
              One lamp will always be on. Else add to switches.

                  A quick query: what are the advised tire pressures for city commuting?
                  Currently I have: 32(F) & 36 (R)
                  Please advice.
                  everyone has got a monster within them, only some know how to tame it

                    That is right pressure for riding solo. Make it 33 to34 at front and 38 to 39 at back if you going long drive with pillion.

                          Hello vnsk, hope you are having a blast with your new motorbike.

                          I think they have changed the page long back or is there something I am missing? [emoji41]

                          PS: I would really wish they update the dealer information. Most of the dealers there have already closed shops and not available.

                                I have been writing to the customer service last month, three mails to be precise and they havent replied. The last time I visited the site I thought it still had the DSK in it...MaybeI am mistaken. I am still waiting for my headlight switch which is not functioning. I was searching for in aliexpress and was going to buy it today.....But now, since APB says they spares might start coming by 20th, guess I will wait.....
