Well i live in a not so lighted area and dont want to get in a wreck cause someone cant see me or i cant see a object in the road. I dont want to dump the money on HID's so are there any brighter bulbs i can buy?

 

I found some H7, 55w, 8500K Xenon/Krypton bulbs on Ebay...I haven't tried them yet, but they come w/ a lifetime guarantee...they'll replace them for free (less shipping costs) if they ever burn out or break.

there are 110w bulbs but you have to get them at a aftermarket store, just becareful when wiring.

 

Be careful with those 110w bulbs. On the 1000RR the charging system puts out a total of 340 watts at 5000 rpm. Keeping two 110w bulbs burning for an extended period of time sounds like battery/rectifier/stator problems down the road. There is also the possibility of melting some wires by going too high.

 

What about adding some driving lights? can be wired so Hi beams, they are on, low, they are off. could get some pretty neet lookin sets too.

 

I second that on cheap headlight bulbs from ebay or the 110w.

Sure the Ebay bulbs will create that cool looking HID look, but your stock bulbs will out perform them.

As for the 110w don't do it!!! You will fry your wiring.

If you are handy or if you want to spend the money install a set of TRUE HID headlights in your bike. I have HID installed on my low beam and it is very bright with a heat range of about 7000K.

Go do a search by typing "H7 HID conversion kit".


These are GREAT prices for a conversion kit.

The bulbs I bought say 55w on the package, and I specifically asked the seller about this before I bought them. Are you saying that they're lying?...do you know this for a fact?

Those are Junk I honestly don't think you will be happy with those.

Do youself a favor and buy a set of Sylvania Silverstars. I have heard great reviews about these bubls.

 

RF -- ya those bulbs ARE 55w and are brighter than stock -- the 110w bulbs are a different theme in this thread.

 

gotcha...thanks chain
