    • I am currently using a HID on my ZMR and planning to go for Projector (made by mxsmotosport , delhi) . I would like to know if it a good upgrade in terms of visibility and reliability ????
      I don't brake rules , I merely test their elasticity ;)

        Yes its a trade off if u go for a bi xen lens, instead u can try halogen aux lamps for flashing.



        You can ask the accessory shops here, and some of them are giving warranty for the entire kit. Always go for a kit with a warranty of atleast 6 months as it'll give u peace of mind for the money u've spent than settling with non-warranty kits which will be a few hundred bucks less than the first types.

        Opening the HL glass requires lil patience, u can google for opening HL glass in youtube which will give u better idea about the whole process.

        For H4 stock connector can be saved by using the H4 male connecter like this. For R1, u need two H7 connectors to achieve this.

        Thanks man...will see how it turns out. I need a Projector now

        • Hi .. I have Pulsar UG4 and upgraded stock headlight bulb to Bosch 55w.
          The color of this light is very strange. somewhat yellow + brown.
          Can anyone suggest better bulbs.
          Thanks in advance.

          • I found Philips premium (85 Rs.) very good. Yellowing light is best.. not sure about brown part

            • i'm planning to replace my stock pulsar classic head lights.
              I need better lighting with out sacrificing the inner reflector which may melt on high temperatures..Kindly suggest a good option which emits low heat and which performs like halogens. Halogen emits a lot of heat.

                hahaha ... Nitin Bhai actually it is like lights in evening.
                i find it kind of dull in front of other bikes with 'super white' light.
                as rains are almost over, I am planning to switch to a bulb which will lighten up the dry roads in night.

                • just one question out of curiosity, looking at HID which are fitted on bikes, how can one know the color temperature are whether 4300k or 6000k.

                  Asking as i ordered one HID from navneesh and i am pissed out as the range what it gives is totally useless.
                  Wondering what to use on the Stock R15 reflectors, any suggestions will be welcomed.

                    Sagar, quoting again.. White light is for Poser value .. the Rider doesn't see much.. Philips premium is best as far as visibility is concerned

                          what is the total power consumption? Will it fit in the pilot lamp slots of R15 I mean length wise?

                              Exactly similar thought in my mind when i first installed the 9 SMD LED , but these 38 are way ahead in brightness , its really hard to look at them from near .

                              Origional stock parking lights are 12v 3w & these led's are 12v 1.9w , so there is 1.1w of power is saved .
                              Its dimensions are "Dimensions: 1.50 in x 0.47 in x 0.47 in (3.8 cm x 1.2 cm x 1.2 cm)" . I don't know how much length is in R15 parking light slot , so can't say whether they will fit or not .
                              Remove the parking bulb & connector , insert a pencil or pen from bottom in the parking lights slot & then measure length on pencil/pen using scale this is what i done before purchasing these led's
