Let there be Light : Bike Lighting, HID etc

[moeed]

I have a few queries. Can some one help me?
Can this HID kit be installed on any bike?
Which one is better in terms of intensity of the beam? The HID or the OSRAM nightbreaker?
Thanks in advance.

is it necessary to connect the night breakers with a dc source?? wats the harm in using it on the alternator??

Not necessary, afaik only Avenger has a 55w output for headlight from alternator. So any other bike needs alternator mods or DC conversion for max brightness.

AFAIK HID can be put on to any bike having good battery.

HiD will definitely give the best light and is way expensive too. AFAIK a local HID also costs 2000rs+ whereas Nightbreaker is 700rs+.

Headlight Issues

Hello everybody..
I have a Yamaha RX135 4 speed '99 model. Everything's going great except the Headlights. The light is almost negligible. I have tried many Bulbs but it still remains the same. Its really difficult at night and i constantly keep running into potholes which hurts my bike and i don't like it.
Please suggest what can i do to get a good beam.
Thanks...

May I ask which bulbs you have used? I have tried many halogen bulbs on my stock Shogun... but strangely I find an ordinary tungsten filament (Ravi) bulb to give the brightest output!

Is your reflector in good condition?

[blisteringintelligence]

I think you're right.. maybe i need to change my reflector...
I'll do that in a few days...lets see what happens!!!
