I was originally tempted to go down the Hid kit route, but after reading mixed reviews decided against it. After reading some of the posts where standard bulbs were changed to Osram Nightbreakers I decided to take the plunge. I have to say that I'm impressed with the results, they certainly do seem to reach further down the road. I also changed the sidelight bulbs for 5W cree white lights, and was surprised how much light they throw on the road immediately in front of the bike. :banana:
