As said about the wiring and the visibility but also it'll look daft if its your first/only mod imo.
most bikes pull it off from a distance or some angles but I've not seent hat many that it really suits.

I used to have them on the SV. They look good enough. But I got fed up of not seeing where I was going on unlit roads. The main beam and dip difference is also too much. You either have to have the lights pointing at the ground so when main beam comes on they shine in the right place. Or have the main beam hitting the tree branches. :roll:

Good enough for street roads. Country roads they are naff.

Ape what was that bowl headlight you had on one of your bikes? or could you recommend any? My standard has a crack in the plastic bowl and the rim is pretty square.

HID.... mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm:rolleyes:

give me HID anyday. HID works better if the bubs are non H4 (both beams in one)...obviously this is doe to the lights fitted to a bike, my main one is on a bmw so a H1 replacement. my dip beam is awesome... the high beam just doesnt get used anymore :smt040

It's just a basic universal chrome headlight. Got it from busters or somewhere like that. It's the one I have fitted to the SV now in replacement for the dominator lights.
