Let there be Light : Bike Lighting, HID etc

Have you tried a 60/55 w lamp on P220 S ? 100w halogen can cause battery problems . better go in for a 35 watt Hid if budget permits .

Ya i am courently running 60/55 on P220S...Ya i also think HID would be better...thanks anyways Puneet

a pulsy 220 will support 90/100 bulb if the rpm is more then 3.5 k rpm,on high ways its not at a prob.

however a prob is the reflector will and READ WILL melt after first 30 min of exposure,because its designed to take heat of 35 watt only.a 55/60 is ok with it but the illumination specially the low beam is too much spreaded to the horizon hence the prob,the hid will improve the low beam to a very good extent but the high beam will suffer but it will def better then a 55/60 bulb.
i am currently using a bixenn hid 4300k on ug3 reflector and a single 4300k hid on dcm toyota sealbeam mounted on the left crash guard,thelight is quite impressive.
my bike is a p 180 ug2 though.

me and fellow xbhpian mr.bibek joti is currently working ona project to change the shitty reflector ,,,,,,,,also tryin to fabricate a bixenon projector....

Wow, what an idea sirjii

Drji, u r the only cool guy in the Xbhp lighting threads.

Look forward to the finished pics

Is it a single beam lens?

[NANOtechnology]

looks great doc...

all the best and yes Bi-xenon answers the single beam question....

i think you really didn't need that seal-beam, as your current reflector might have held the projector properly, but you know best...

also upload High resolution pics in detail of front, rear side of this setup like i had posted in my thread...

here are some more pic.

this is under r and d under mr.bibek joti dey

nano dear,
that sealed beam is dedicated to its own hi/low beam,not for holdin up the projector,.the projector is also having hi/low beam.

just by that seal beam we ditched the oem reflector of pulsar which having a pathetic high beam...

[abhijeet080808]

Looking nice doc! Waiting for the final pics!

[NANOtechnology]

well doc...
to be honest why you want both of them having hi/lo??

projector spread is soo much that high beam won't be good...

besides you already have a hid high beam inside the seal-beam so why sacrifice the projector?

i wanted to ask 1 thing to everybody...
i have a projector currently with an H3 socket..

in a bixenon projector, the shied goes up and down inside the projector right??

so one can plonk a h3 bulb inside it too, right??

do we get such h3 socket wala bixenon projectors separately??
i just want to know....
currently am not planning to do so....

[Puneet1]

check it guys YouTube - All new BMW Motorrad Adaptive Headlight

@nanotechnology -yes correct , yes if you get a bi xenon projector that takes in h3 hid your present hid will fit .

[NANOtechnology]

wow
now i want that too...

amazing...
simply amazing...

[abhichotu.abhi]

Every one says that HID without a projector produces too much glare. My question is: The glare is produced in the riders eyes or the oncoming vehicle rider??



@puneet : Lolz.....

[drvmtm]

@nano,
imagine this........

open highway,trucks are coming with at least armed with 4 90/100 or even 130/100 watts of power from opposite side.you are on a bike ridin,ridin,ridin,for the unknown,why?because you are a tourer.the possibility is the trukies dont see you man!!!!!!and ya you will fail to see the road when a truck with 4 headlighs on coming in fron of you.

trust me more is better,at least get it up to a car level where a decent amount of light you can get,,,,,,,,....

here are some updates from my side,i changed my 6000 k hid to 4300k,thanks navnish,also realigned it.tonight i went a dead against test with current favorite p 220 carb,,,enjoy..


also the projector+sealbeam work is almost 90 percent done.i request bibek ,please update.

[Hunky]

need to buy a BCU free bike with good coil upgrade possibility .. your modifications are so tempting

[NANOtechnology]

wow doc....
simply awesome...

you should be given a lighting award from xbhp....
mods are you listening this??

i dunno about there, but here such a setup will be a cop magnet from day 1 ....


at least you got rid of that crash guard lamp..
i dunno why but i simply hate putting up things on the crash guard....

some beam pics are very much wanted...
p220 goes to shame...

how many days spent, and yes which bulb you have in that bixenon projector??
where did you source the projector from??
