    Will coil rewinding help resolve my problem?.
    Any possible solutions to my problem?.
    Plz help me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Coil is must and safest bet. I used it in my bike for over 2 years without any issues

      Hi, I am new here. Sorry for my noobness if this question has been asked earlier. I have an Yamaha R15S and was looking to fit projectors for the headlight. One of mu friend said Ktm RC200's projector would fit properly. Is that true. If not then where can I get one fixed. I am looking for LED projectors not HID ones as I have heard it starts giving issues after few months.

          6500K rated LEDs. Would be white blue. Useless in rains. Please avoid. Legally, you can't exceed 4300K but LEDs aren't that warm. Try staying within 5500 K.

            Hey guys
            Help needed for adjusting my headlights . Recently I have installed a RTD 4400LM 40W for both sides and the result is good with the stock reflectors. I need some help in adjusting the throw. Pls explain from the below pic.


            Hope the letters are visible.i marked three bolts as 1,2,3 with prefix L and R respectively. Kindly help me what kind of adjustments that the three bolts give.
            Thanks in advance .

              The R15 would need the H7. You could check out the Cyclops bulbs. They seem to be pretty good. Found them on www.bikenbiker.com

                Dear forum members
                I own a discover 100 4g and I want to remove it's fairing and put in a round head lamp. I have seen a few discovers in Hyderabad for which this work is neatly executed and on some shoddy work was done like fixing clamps. Can you members suggest where in Hyderabad can I get this work done neatly. Also please share your veiws on this modification. Headlamp should focus great and should hold this current light holder setup.also what can be done to the pilot headlamps?
                How much would this modification cost.

                Thanks

                  Finally got the mot awaited accessories for my MOJO i.e the foglamp and I am quite impressed by its quality and light . Definitely its worth the money spent and now I can munch miles during night happily . Its a 25 Watt CREE led fog lamps

                  Check this video for complete details and review https://youtu.be/s4Fc09pyJ2Y


                  Also if you are from Bangalore dont use it during the day time as it attracts COPS as some of my friend reported , but no issue in Pune .

                      Hi guys, need some suggestions regarding Led headlight. i have a 2007 model Bajaj xcd 125 with Full dc system. currently using 35w halogen which is pretty bad. recently i have been riding at night and need better lights. after reading this thread it seems like these are recommended by some people here --





                      but i don't think it will fit as the area behind bulb is not enough. and i have seen newer leds without fan instead they have some steel stripes. but i don't know if those are better compared to stock 35w halogen.


                      are there any better options available in 4300k warm white ? my budget is max 3500rs. don't want more than 35w but i really want better and more light compared to stock 35w halogen. thanks. also , i don't want those leg guard leds as i don't like the looks.

                          Didn't realize there is a thread about Aux/head light mods. So I m copying the link from my post on fitting 1 pair of Hella hallogen light and 1 pair of LED light for Fog/Aux lights on ER6n.

                                Go to a local shop and replace the filament bulbs with LEDs units. Each unit generally costs around 30-60 rupees. Pretty standard
