HID xenon lights XT600E
 

Has anyone ever tried one of those 35w 4300k/35w 6000k or 55w 4300k/55w 600k Xenon kits sold on ebay?


I've got the stock headlight with Phillips bulb 35w and just can't get enough light on the street to ride safely....


In terms of electrics the only difference my bike has from stock is I got LED turn signals with an LED flasher relay and one of those Stebel Magnum horns.


Can the XT600E handle either the 35w or the 55w units?

Also interested in this, but my headlight is an enclosed unit. With yours you can remove just the bulb?

I know when I swapped in HID's to my car it was a very simple process, but even the slim ballast could make it a tight fit.

You can add a 100W bulb if you like, the xt will still charge fine. But if you do, run it through a relay to get max lights, its hard for the on/of-short/long lights switches to carry the load of a bulb like that.

The problem with HID is that the reflector in our front lights isnt made for it, so it spreads the light allover, allowing you to see, but youre blinding oncoming traffic aswell :( If you adsjust it to not blind, the lights goes straigt to the ground, and you see less than if you were running a conventional bulb.

Its illeagal in this country to fit aftermarked HID to a bike that isnt made for it (very few bikes comes with HID from the factory)

Im using a osram nightbreaker (or simular) in 65w, fed trough a realy (actually 2 relays, one for short, and one for long lights) I bought a kit throug www.easternbeaver.com which was well made, and very easy to wotk with.

Hope this helps. :scooter:
