    Re: Aux lights

    Guys,

    I am looking for good aux lights for my Benelli 600. Something under 10 K. I need floods as I usually dont ride at night ( only emergencies and or just to feel the cool air) and never above 70 kmph. If any one knows any online shops let me know. I know I can get Goldrunway from aliexpress, but with the current dollar scenario, what was available a couple of months back for 9k is now 14k. Regret not buying then !
    I posted same question under new thread.
    Actually bought HELLA knight rider lights at 3800 from a retail store here in Pune. Thing is they're actually car fog lights but I'll be using them as aux light on my hero impulse.
    There are HELLA value fit led aux lights for 4000 also.
    Haven't seen them anywhere or someone using them so can't tell how they perform.
    But knowing it's from HELLA light throw has to be good.
    You can see both these lights on amazon.in website.

    Re: Let there be Light : Bike Lighting, HID etc

    Hi guys,
    If I have to replace the stock indicators on my R3(which aren't LED's of course) to the Duke/dominar led ones, what do I have to do other than just getting the indicators and replacing the stock ones with the respective wires?
    I read about the relay flasher. Do I need four such flashers, or how does it work? Can someone help me with a simple diagram.

    Will you recommend it to motorcycles without projector housing?

Since he owns a P220 and I an AS200, we have the same light setup. We both use them in High Beam reflector. It has to be aligned and adjusted well to get the right beam pattern. On coming traffic will get a glare if the bulb is not properly aligned. Rains will be an issue for 6k however, the roads will litup once you turn them on.

    I'm looking to purchase the same for my Gixxer. I will be placing it just below the headlight. Can you send me a picture of the brightness, if possible?

    A small and naive query. I tried searching through the thread but, I failed to yield any credible results and so, I humbly request few suggestions from individuals about my issue.
    I have a Pulsar AS200, with DC setup powering H7 headlights with low beam being a projector headlamp. Yes, it is stock however, I had been using the Osram Nightbreaker for over 2 years now in the projector. I have never used my highbeams apart from taking passes on highways or in any trips I have been to simply because it was never needed. No, I do not have an aux setup either. Now, the projector beams is fading, it is evident and I am looking for a replacement bulb which would help me be able to see better since, the current beam is effective only in the dark that too, the intensity is very poor.
    I am leaving for Bhutan this September and I can't afford a HID setup which would cost me nearly 14k because it is better to change the Projector with it since, the stocks is not of the standard or effective enough. I did get myself 2 pairs of LED Aux lamps (1 pair 20w each spots & 1 pair 30w floods) which I will install once you guys judge whether the battery will be able to take that load. Second, a set of replacement bulbs for both Hi Beam reflector and Low beam projector within 2 to 2.5k. I am thinking of an LED headlamp bulb for hi beam but can't put an LED bulb in the projector, it never works efficiently.
    Your kind suggestions will be highly appreciated brothers.
    Anyone here can please provide with some suggestion?
