Thank everyone! Yeah the RC-1 is red, just my old camera.

Love it. That's something I'd like to do eventually. How hard was installation?

It was really basic, everything was plug and play and there is great write-up on 600rr.net

Are the lights noticeably brighter during the night? I always use high beams when driving at night but I'm interested in installing the HID's to give me more visible distance ahead of me.

^^ Yeah, much brighter. I was riding a friend of mine and he said it was blinding (I alwayse ride with my high beam on, unless I'm following a car for a while at night I' switch it off for them). Just remember the higher up the scale you go, the less distance you get but the more blue you get (4-8K). The 6K's are perfect in terms of visibility and looks, and compared to stock it's night and day.
