only a bulb swap wont help.Coil rewinding is required

bro throw some light on this coil rewinding funda...
and also the consequencies on other electricals after doing it(if any)
price,pro's and con's....

the present coil set up suffices only for 35w bulb.Which means if u want to use a higher wattage bulb u will have to change the coil that is the number of turns will have to be increased along with using wire of higher gauge
Coming to the cons-This job has to be carried out only by an expert because chances of coil failure can occur if not done properly.
Though pulsar owners are very lucky as all they have to do is swap out their existing coil with that of the avenger,which supports 60w bulb

ok so in that case even FZ wont be able to support 60w bulb? then what is the alternative? without handling the coil.

options
1. make some extra space and add another battery!
2. take the risk and use it on existing setup!!
3. forget it!!!

another option add a high capacity battery and an HID

what abt the uni man....???
just tell me where,how,what,who and i'll be on the way...
i really need a light upgrade..
and also i heard that the high capacity bulbs get heated up real quickly if used on a bike and spoil the reflector???is it true???
and does the coil give power only to head light or any thing else???
cause i don't wanna fry up my electricals....

u can upgrade the unicorn's 7ah battery to a 9ah battery(pulsar's).That wud solve your problem.Just remember a seperate stand alone wiring should be done.I had used hid in my bike untill one of my friends managed to crash my bike head on with a tankers' rear end bull bar.

hi,
recently i have installed fog lamps on my electra 5s. but mech did not add any relay or cut-off in the circuit. is it better to have one? if i need to add, which one should i ask for?

[beowulf]

Try using the Avenger 55/60 coil. Seems its a direct fit and people have tried it. With this coil, the ONB or Philips Xtreme Power 55W are a direct fit.

Beo

At last final solution!, got my self Crystal vision Fogs w5w for Zma.

@Cssk:-

Havent u seen this by Sandeep.k.ram,?.

For P200 - unless you have done coil rewinding you will see no difference whatsoever with 60/55 or 100/90. You simply wont be running either of them at full power coz the magento doesn't deliver more than ~40W to you headlamps. So its of no use putting them on a P200 in stock state.

how much did it cost u? [Crystal vision Fogs ]

[nagawade]

just now finished 22 pages of this thread......... can any bullet owner share the fog lamp experience?

ok..but what abt all the remaining electricals???
but if we do that doesn't the battery discharge very quicky???
i don't want a h i d.. i would like to use the n.b/philips...
so could you tell me what all to do with out directly connecting connecting to the battery??? and what abt the heat???

another option add a high capacity battery and an HID

i am sure in that case warranty will be void, what about 35w HID? on same 5Ah battery setup?
