Oh dear and so is having more than one extra headlamp (unless factory fitted) so I am used to being a lawbreaker.
The local testing station always gave me a warrant with my extra two riding lamps.
If my WOF guy gets antsy about it it will be a 15min job to replace with the H4.

With so many kits on the market these days, what the hell do you buy???
If anyone is having trouble figuring this out, post the make and model of the bike in question, and we will do our best to steer you in the correct direction.
Yeah, boo hoo hoo ay. Gawd its gunna keep me awake at night!
Oh oh oh, and I am going to have to weld up the holes I drilled in my muffler.. not legal!!
LOL

"What Steve said pretty much summed it up."
"I did axactly as you said and it worked...!!"
"Wow, Great advise there DB."
WTB: Hyosung bikes or going or not.
Ok there is hope.
1. I have adjusted the lamp to the "legal" height. I have never been "flashed" so I assume that this is not dazzling other drivers/riders. In the research I have done 35W HID is accepted as being safe in this regard unlike the 55W versions.
2. The bulb is a magnetically dipping type arrangement which means that it is on all the time. (read the original post)
3. Yes I am breaking the law.
I admit that I break it every day by riding between 51-60km/hr on the way to/from work but I consider myself safe and considerate (and I am nice to animals and growl at people who park in Disabled zones so that might cancel out this sin)
Hopefully this clears up the confusion if not, sorry, go see the Padre.
Cheers and have a good day

Just finished putting H7 55w/(90) bulbs in,they're similar to plus 80,haven't seen any on shelves here though,same voltage use according to blurb etc.
Hello officer put it on my tab

Ok you lot, lol
I have an after market twin headlight system, steel bodies, metal reflectors.
I use the lights as , one dip, one high. thus keeping the wattage pull to 55/65w
per lamp,which is the max for my charging system.
My Q?
Would running one of these HD lamps increase the wattage pull on my alternator? or reduce it.
