Zx9-R C2 HID headlight setup

he has all sorts ranging from 4k to 14k... 6k is my recommendation and is what i have on my bike

If you like to blind people then i recommend 10000k but if your a nice persone I would recommend 6000k Ive got them currently on my ninja 250 and they are bright enough even for the old road at night!year!

Sorry to dampen the enthuasium, but Brian your headlight was a freekin distraction in the mirrors

i believe that is the "spill-over" side effect.

i always notuce HID kits on old style headlights tend to just shine everywhere but where intended.

Which is exactly the concern i have about putting a HID kit on my bike.

If it's going to be a problem with older style bikes, I think I'll reconsider and just put in an extra bright globe and see how that goes, spent too much on the bike already anyway

EDIT I should say that the brighter globe will be one of the same wattage, just a clearer and cleaner globe like the NARVA Ice ones

Putting too bright a globe in can cause problems if the housing and/or wiring isn't rated for it. the latter is easily sorted out by running a relay and dedicated fusing and power cabling. the former, not so easily sorted out.

It's only an issue with reflector housing headlights. If you have projectors, you're laughing
