    Welcome bro.

    So you mean to say that Phillips extreme power would cost 600 bucks for the single bulb ?
    It will cost you between 450-600.Not sure,Ask your dealers for correct price.

    Also the bike was not used for long time. The battery has got discharged. Can this be the reason my 35w bulb not providing enough lighting ?
    No way for that,when ever you starts your bike,it will glow @ its max.Get your battery recharged and fill water as necessary at a good reputed battery shop.It will cost you less than 50rs. and get 55/60 after that.

                Which program you used for compression...win-zip or winrar ? and what was the compressed file size as a percentage of original file ?

                  I used WinRar,No change in the Size.Just to keep it in a single file. Its nearly 20MB.

                    try 7-zip, much better and faster compression than winzip/winrar
                    i am growing old, but not up!

                      Yeah,I know.20mb is not a huge size to download.

                        Thanks for the pic sir.. Found it!! And I don't think just adjusting the beam position would help. Will try changing focus. Or do you suggest to go for an aux light? Will it be powerful? I just want a well lit road when riding on the highways at night. Any good and specific brands and models to look out for? And will the battery be able to take the load of the 55/60w lamp and also the aux light? And is it possible to fix a crash bar without removing the engine cowl? A single rod crash guard would do. Then I can mount the aux light on that. Or else where can i mount the aux light if not possible to fix a crash guard?
                        We are miles away from the routine.
                        Headlights rise over the horizon.

                          Contact imjoshee he had once fixed Hella on the crash bar. I could not really see if it was a single crash bar though when he posted the picture sometime back (Pg 527). (@imjoshee - do you still have in your bike?)

                          With regards to powerful light, we have limited mods unless wanted to try HID.

                          1. 60/55w maximum the headlight reflector can take the heat
                          2. HID - however, it got its own cons too (refer earlier pages)
                          3. Go for Aux lamp
                          Or stop riding at night.

                          • Guys, back from a 1400kms trip. Changed my Zma's front to Sirac street just before i left. I was a bit skeptical abt Rear M45 and front Sirac street. but i just loved it. Was able to cornor like never before with a pillion abd it saved my ass twice as i had to get off the road and onto the gravel once at 60kmph + and once at 80kmph +. it handled well!

                            Got this recently from a Honda showroom



                            The Sirac Street front 2.75*18



                            Was able to cornor till this extent!



                            M45 and Sirac street. My 4 and half yr old bike!

                              Congrats on your successful trip. The tank pad looks cool. Do Honda have in other colors as well? Also, what's the M45 size your rear tire running?

                                Thx bro. They had 2 different looking pads. This one suited my bike better. Picked this for 193rs. packed date was 2007/08. Guess it would be hard to find. Am running on 4.00 M45
