HID headlights? K3.

[cornishsv]

Hi all. I've got twin dominator headlights on my k3 naked pointy and was wondering if it's possible to install a hid kit to them or not to bother and get 100w bulbs. Your thoughts and views would greatly be appreciated

not bother with either, the dominators are for little more than show, anything more powerful will craze the lens and the reflector is to small for it to make any usable difference, if you want useful night illumination you'll need to invest in something better, I'd suggest something along the Triumph 5 1/4 bates type, these can accommodate both high bulbs or as you mentioned a HID kit.

Thanks for the reply and yeah looks like I'll be on the lookout for the bates

. . which is FAR better with Cibie lens/reflector.
