driving /spot lights

[surfabusa]

guys about your lights.

so the hids need warming up?

is that initiall start? or each time you turn off high beam to low beam?

i seriously need new bulbs in my headlights and shopping around with the choices

hi cheeky

the hids i have take about 30 -40 sec to reach full potential so switching from high to low and back tohigh due traffic is not all that helpful and i have been told will reduce the life of globes and ballast. also a good idea to hold starter in before you turn key so light does not turn on until you pull clutch in and start, this stops light flashing on and off and on again during start up of bike.( hope this makes sense)

personally i cant believe this day and age that suzuki still makes a great bike with such crap lighting, to the point of being dangerous at night(will post pics soon of the difference)

however i did not find the high beam hid have long enough beam range, low beam gave me wider and a lot brighter spread but my bike still lacks long range vision at night

end of the day was the installation worth it.. you bet...i am sure cars can see me better during the day and i can see better at night!!

if you are in south to central qld pete from petes pit stop made the installation job look easy and a very neat job at fitting the ballasts
