    Only if you get a proper projector for it too, stock buckets aren't set up to throw a correct light pattern for HID bulbs. Most mod kits don't come with these, and most wouldn't fit in the original bucket anyway.

    Just get a headlight modulator so it twinkles a bit, these are illegal as well, but you are far less likely to dazzle other road users than with a poorly fitted HID bulb.

    Yea, the legality of them is a concern, but ya know…
    The full kits are available and from what I’ve seen from others who have done the mod the beam cut-off and height remains the same with a little more oomph and a whiter light.
    But still undecided… Maybe if I find a set of second hand lights I’ll give it a shot…

    Fuckit, tank bag with a flare gun.
    Then they’ll see you!

    As it's been said above, the laws of physics are not in your favour. Give way to the bigger object even though you may be in the right.
