    For single piece or pair? @ ebay for a pair 2.6k

      For a pair. Ah well, i got the fitments for 250 at that shop so a net loss of only 50. I can live with that

          I'm not entirely sure. A separate switch was installed to operate the headlight. But i think the connection to the battery is given via the existing cables.

                1,620 lumens as per the website. No independent way to verify the same :/

                    Nope, not a water proof switch. Here's the pic. You pull it up to switch on the lights.

                      Those whose bike doesnt have the eks can fit it and use the switch for extra lights/connection.

                                I have been hunting for good quality HID projectors deal (preferably AES or MORIMOTO) here in Hyderabad. Though there are many shops in Minister Road or Stadium premises but all they have is regular Xenon/P8/Philips HID kits & are quoting very high.

                                So, anyone who has either of these 2 brand projectors (AES/MORIMOTO) installed (either in their car/bike) can help me take this forward. This thread can help others as well who are looking forward to have a quality upgrade to their rides.

                                Attached are some products from AES & MORIMOTO for viewing purpose.

                                Hello everyone. I am a biker from Hyderabad who does long distance touring. It was always my dream to have an effective headlamp to make my night rides safer & predictable. With years of trial & research , I slowly became a professional motorcycle customizer(headlamps & lighting).

                                As a biker , you can shoot e your queries , and I will try to answer them all.

                                Some of the stuff that you may find interesting. These is the lighting setup I have on my motorcycle.
