I'm sure it has been asked, but a search yielded no results...

I am looking to add some HID lighting to my bike. The stock lights suck for night riding, brights are better but not really the solution I am hoping for. SO...

Does anyone have any advice or tips on which brand to look into? I am opening to be able to keep headlight functionality (Two Headlights and High beams) but I am not even sure if it is possible. There seem to be a lot of choices out there.

Thanks!

I know this place makes HID's for bikes.

They do it by the size of bulb. I have never installed HID's on a bike but I have them on my Yukon. It took five minutes to install the ballast and plug in the lights. I am thinking it is the same concept on a bike. Just putting the ballast in the fairing with some double sided tape or velcro.
I was thinking of getting some HID's for my 02 GSXR as well. You may also want to do some searches on some of the GSXR forums to see if anyone has done HID's for your same style bike.
Good luck and keep us posted!

I have hid's on my sv650 and the hardest part was finding a place to hide the ballast. Mine are car HID's the cost less and are the same thing. Get slim ballast they are much easier to stash.
