Re: H.I.D's

plenty of good ones out there.. not too hard to install just takes a little patience. make sure you get a kit with slim ballasts. otherwise you're in for some work..

Re: H.I.D's

Just put them in my 900.....Raptor kit with slimline ballasts. They're plug and play, hardest part was routing the wires, which took all of 20 mins to make it nice and clean.

I just bought a 97 CBR900 that I would like to put HID's in. Do you have a link to the web sight and the part number for the kit you order. Thanks

Re: H.I.D's

Sure, I'll PM you when I get home. most kits are $40 for both bulbs, my h4's were 65-66 something like that because of the hi-low function.

Re: H.I.D's

Thanks I will be looking for your PM. The guy I bought the bike from had a yellow head light on the right hand side. Low or High beem it doesnt matter the headlight shines yellow . The guy must of wanted to be different or something. I figured since I need to change the bulbs I might as well get a HID kit. Always wanted to put one in one of my rides but just never got around to it.
