The slim ballasts are VERY easy to hide under the upper side fairings. Even the large ballasts will fit under there (with a little bulging of course).

A lot has changed in the HID world and the slim ballasts are now digital. All the newer slim-ballast kits are digital ballasts and are now just as bright as the larger ballast kits (though, warm up time still takes a bit longer than the larger ballasts)

To answer a few questions about where I get my kits. The place I've purchased before has since gone downhill and I don't purchase from them anymore. I just recently retrofitted my car with HID headlamps and fog lamps and couldn't be happier, here's the link..........

inspected? maybe in cali they would be hard-asses - but i've ridden in idaho and las vegas for over 9 months and never had a cop do a u-turn and pull me over (idaho is ticket heaven too. really strict)

from what i heard, they are illegal because of the brightness of the bulb and how it's "not" directed in one point (the road) this can cause glare to other on-comming drivers and temp. blind them.. And i can agree from it myself, b ut i also get blinded by brand new BMW's with the HID's. But i do love mine and never had trouble with them

 

i have an 03 600RR, anyone know hot to remove the side fairing that is under the handgrips? there is a plastc screw on the inside but i cantunscrew it, it looks like ones that u need to pop out but i cant figure out how.i want to see if i can store all the wiring and my slim ballasts in those.

 

I have a 2005 F4i. I want to install an HID kit... since my current lights SUCK for night riding on Arizona roads. On the site mentioned by Blue Fox, I found this kit:

Would something like this work for me? I a bit nervous about picking up a kit that costs 60 bucks, when so many others are selling for 150+. Has anyone used this kit, or know anyone who has?

Thanks a million

 

go to http://ddmtuning.com/ddmhidkits.htmlthey have kits for motorcycles and there ballasts are super thin.Plus they have a lifetime warrenty on parts. I have a set on my jeep and they are awesome.

 

I bought the kit from DDMtunning . For $60 what do you have to loose they work gr8 very ez install I think it took 10min. The ballest are so thin . I had to take my bright and aim it down all the way.

 

Hrm... I could lose 60 bucks. That's have the price of my new undertail (unpainted stuff is cheap... thank god I can paint). Has anyone used the 55 Watt kits? Are they street legal... or rather, has anyone got pulled over by a piggy, bear, or moose humper for using them?

 

Do you think you can take some pictures of the lights with them on and then shining on the wall with your bike about ten feet from the wall please?

 

I pony'd up and bought a kit. I'll take pictures of the install on my 05 F4i. I've never made any sort of installation how-to or FAQ, but I'll see what I can put together while doing the install.

 

do you put both ballasts into the same place?
