Let there be Light : Bike Lighting, HID etc

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.

yeah mate. i remember your advice. i was planning on getting the Eliminators Stator plate as someone said its coil produces more power and then change the bulb. As it turns out, i cant get hold of those OSRAM bulbs and they guys @ Sai Service bajaj said it was not worth taking a chance to rewind the coil or mess with the stator plate.

so now i guess HID is the only way to go? bloody expensive way to go too :P

^ Not necessarily - If you are interested in a HID PM me. A friend of mine is getting some from the USA for a good price.

Thank U veryMuch for ur response and info. Can we mod the electricals like this? and install a new button here?

I am sure its possible to add an extra switch to give you that option of switching off the bike with the switch rather than the key ..maybe it will take some work ...but I am not sure you can get a switch placed so ergonomically on the RHS switchgear ...I meant to say it might look ugly coz its tough to blend it into the console there and i am not sure if there is enough space beneath the top cover.

But a 2way/3way switch can be installed somewhere on the handlebar definitely.

thats quite neatly done!
I have stuck to the tried and tested path of enlightenment. I am running an Avenger coil+rr unit with a osram silverstar 60/55 w bulb. It has done wonders and would have done even better with a better reflector.

have u tried night breaker if so which one is good Silverstar or nightbreaker?

[Sandeep_K_Ram]

u mean Bi-xenon HID ? how much ill it cost for one? can u send me a pic of 2way or 3 way switch tht we get here? or els can we get same switch gear controls of any other bike which has a EK switch and which exactly fits to ZMA

Yes. Bi-Xenon. I will PM you the details.

Sandeep could u please tell me how much a Splitfire cable for karizma costs and plz if u have a pic of how it looks plz upload it

There are types of Split fire cables. One of them is Rs 4xx and the other is 8xx. Latter is a "2-core" cable... I have no experience with either of them. However George Katie has bought them recently and you can ask him if he feels any different on his ZMA...

Sorry I dont have any pics.

installing Osram Nightbreaker is possible in P200 ?? also what things would i need to change the bulb ?

[CJ]

Also i cant find Osram in my place...any details where its gonna be available in Hyd ?

[diffuser911]

OK guys, can you tell me what options do I have for upgrading the CBZ classic's headlamps? Also, give me the steps for the installation, as my mech claims that much stuff needs changing in the electrical system for any change from the stock headlamp..

[prajwalkashyap]

As a matter of fact, I need some help too.

I have a Unicorn and the stock light is pathetic! I mean.... its like riding with a candle in front. I want to brighten it and still retain the hi-beam/low-beam capabilities and without attracting the attention of the cops as well as without being a nuisance to the incoming traffic.

My knowledge of lights, bulbs and bike electricals is zero, zilch. I need help from ground up.

Anyone?

U can fit HID but it is too expensive around 4000 INR in kolkata or u can go for rtr160's osram 35W Bilux one. The rtr 160 have better light among all 150CC.
