        Hey bro, looks nice, but i love your blue meters... looks so damn sexy


        P.S. how much did the HID 4300k cost you?


        Also, can someone tell me how much it cost to make a ZMA fron like the one in the video i posted a few posts up?? NOT including the HID kit. just angel eyes and whateever else is added to make it look hot like that/???? Also, is it worth it?

            I need a customized front fairing to give a decent look to the bike.
            U see these Eyes that's how it looks now...

            U put on Number plates that will make it look much better than it is now & further more Chrome mirrors with small handle or clip ons may look better..

            PS - those round dooms are too big IMHO..

            I need a ride in the dark road now with this set up..

                90 % HIDs are made in china or hong kong only . i've sourced it directly so it came cheaper . also branded ones like philips/hella cost very high and have widespread duplicates in market . you wont be able to find original easily in india .

                  Yea, i figured that out when i came in india lol. and i just asked my Mec and he said that i wont have any problems with any of the china HID kits. so i went ahead and bought the 8000k HID kid for 2200RS. you think it was a good deal?? I'm not a "showoff" person but i love blue so i went with the mix of blue/white. i got a small pic off the net telling me what colors are what "k". ill post below:

                  Hope it helps someone.....





                  P.S. there's a purple dio here in vadodara that has purple HID's and i have to say it looks pretty cool when its around you lol

                        That chart of hid temperature is wrong . Here is a comparison of the the temperatures / Colors.



                        @drvmtm (DR) your hid is in your area i guess. you should get it today most prob.

                        • @DRVMTM : Got the APE RR unit for Rs.1145.00, same like yours. Tell me when can I come to your place now.

                          @PUNEET: Dont you feel any power loss during HID on, if not then OK, otherwise need to rebuild the charging system. How is the horn working when HID is on.

                              • @drvmtm, kauria - I had an HID installed on my RTR180 for over a month... I did not have any issues with the TCI playing up, nor any probs with the battery. But, I was controlling the HID by an additional switch, the stock high beam low beam setup was rendered useless, and when accelrating, the display would grow dimmer, finally completely disappearing (but odo was still functional and no data lost)..... I gave that up coz of the cops...
