I need some more light on the K.
The basic lamp is OK..(certainly better than the GS standard lights) but I'm commuting on small unlit country roads and on some faster but still unlit A roads, and I've been spoilt by having HIDs and spots on the GSA....It's bad enough now, but in a month or two's time it's going to get unpleasant.
I don't like the principle of the H4 HID bulb though.......it seems logical that because the light arc itself is physically changing positions, either the dip HID or the Main beam HID will be out of the critical focus area of the reflector.....with a Halogen H4, the two filaments run alongside eachother. and therefore both are within the area they are meant to be in.
Are there alternatives?
I've offered up several LED spots that we sell, but even the smallest ones look kind of wrong on the front of a K100RS
I won't go down the brighter bulb route.........I know all the blurb says that 'our bulbs are 50% brighter and 'these ones are lifetime guaranteed, you get a free BJ from Charlise Theron and they are 1.5 million candlepower but that's all bollox.....'brighter' bulbs don't last IME, and I don't want to go to the lengths of fitting relays and replacing wiring to cope with 100 watters either
Suggestions welcome
