Hey all, I'd like some HID lights for my 90vfr. Does anyone know the proper kit to purchase? Any success with specific brands? Any downsides? Thanks in advance.
I've got a 6thGen that I bought 4 HIDs for. I had no trouble intalling the low beams with the 35w slimline ballast model. But I had a lot of trouble finding room for the MUCH larger 55 watt model. The slim line ballast run of the original wiring (plug and play) but they also require a 20 amp wire connected directly to the battery to ignite the globe. The larger Ballasts don't need the extra line becuase they have a coil/capacitor in them. I strongly suggest getting the slim line ballast and put up with the extra wireing, becuase you'll have a hell of a time finding some where to mount the larger ballasts. I would probably go for the 35 watt model for low beam and not worry about the 55 watt. 35 watts are about as bright as 200 watt halogen
You need an H4 HID conversion kit. There are plenty out there that are bike specific and plug and play. Some do the low and high beams, whilst others do one or the other. A quick look in the UK found this: HID Kits for motorcycle headlights including Honda, BMW, Suzuki,... I am sure that they are available in the US.
