  • Hella Auxiliary Lamps

    Hi Friends,

    Planning to install HELLA Auxiliary Lights in front license plate clamp.
    Should be 35W X 2 with proper Relays and et all.

    Has one tried this or seen this? Any after effects or issues?

    This will only be used in Night Touring or Foggy or extreme conditions.

    On a daily use the Osram Nightbreaker 55/60 at the main unit will do the regular job.

    Has anyone using OSRAM or PHILIPS have observed the top of reflector just above the lamp?

    My friend using ZMA-R who fitted Osram with me has a melted reflector.
    34567 kms and ZMR sold :(

    • hi

      Hey guys!!

      Yesterday I parked my beast in parking and it was showing 3 dots of petrol meter including the one which blinks. Today when i started the bike the its was the last one and blinking..
      Is it like that or something else guys?. (Stealing of petrol is not the case 99%)

      Cheers!!!

        Is the bulb he is using is of 55W..or 90W...if it is 90W then surely reflector can melt...

        Also, it is advisable to turn off headlight bulb if changed to 55W or higher ...on traffic lights or in neutral mode

        Normally in ZMR...when the petrol bar start showing 2/3 bars...in this case then after 10-15 KM ride it come to 1 bar...and need to fill a petrol...

                Using Philips 55/60 watt bulb nothing melted here , as i ride mostly in day.
                In case of your friend it might be because so much use or high temperature bulb

                I also experinced same , digital fuel indicator is not as accurate as the analog is.

                  I have been using the Philips extreme vision bulb on my Discover 100cc dts-si for a year and using the same on my ZMR for last 1 month and few odd days.I haven't faced any issue of reflector melting.Can you confirm with your friend,Had he ever used 90w bulb in his reflector?

                    • All,

                      No the first friend in Red ZMA-R never used other bulbs. Stock to OSRAM 55W/60W.
                      While the other friend in Yellow ZMA-R uses HID 35W from Navneesh.

                      Both have the same problem. May be we are LUCKY or vice versa.

                      Will upload the pic soon for better clarity.

                          Is there a chance that they have installed a aftermarket lens cover, i had that type installed on my earlier P150 and that became burnt after a period of time even with stock bulbs!
                          All the wise men of the world are called wise only after they spoke their mind, so dont keep the ideas to yourselves!
