HID Lights: The Eye Of God Let me jump into this discussion for a minute. I may be able to answer some of the questions people are asking that Dale hasn't had experience with. I have had dual HID's on my 93 ABS for over a year. I started with the stock Baja Designs shielded bulbs and rode several thousand miles with them. I got the same results Dale has listed, but 2X. The shielded bulbs will not blind oncoming drivers if they are adjusted properly, even with them in both headlights. I have tried the following: one shielded HID and one PIAA Superbright, two shielded HID's, one unshielded HID and one PIAA Superbright, one shielded HID and one unshielded HID, two HID unshielded (my present configuration). Yes there is room under the front fairing on the 93 and 94 ABS bikes for two ballasts and two ignitors (you MUST have a ballast and ignitor for EACH HID) The "two unshielded HID" configuration MUST be done with a modification to the ST's headlamp switch. Two unshielded HIDs is way too bright for use around other vehicles. I modified my hi-low beam switch to turn on one HID in the low beam switch position. I use that to illuminate the right side HID. The Hi beam switch position illuminates both HIDs. I have adjusted the right side (low beam) reflector to shine at a lower level than the left reflector. There are alignment screws in the ST headlight assembly that accomplish this. The assembly must be removed from the bike to accomplish this properly. I toyed with the idea of using a stepper motor to adjust the headlight aim but found the above solution much simpler, more reliable, and less costly. I run an Autocomm intercom with V-1, Diskman, and cell phone inputs and have no interference from the HIDs. There is an almost imperceptible change in voltage on my Datel when I switch on the two HIDs. Its only 100 watts after all. Whereas, my Datel shows at .5 volt drop (from 14.4 to 13.9 vdc) when I switch on my PIAA 910's (110w bulbs....I have done to 40 amp farkel). With the unshielded bulbs (equal to over 700 watts of halogen :-) set up the way I have done, I have all of the benefits of the single HID on low beam (but about twice the brightness on the ground directly in front of me on both hi and low beam) with the advantage of more and brighter light out farther and wider in front of me on high beam than the PIAA 910s (yes I have 910s also). Once I set my dash adjuster, I don't have to fiddle with it unless I add or subtract to the payload. Once in a while another m/c rider will tell me that one of my headlamps is out when I am running on low beam, but he/she quickly retracts that when I hit the hi beams ;-} I have no more problems with people flashing their lights at me than I did with the PIAA Superbrights in the ST headlamp. I have approached head-on, and driven behind highway patrol and local PD in all of the western states for the past year and 20,000 + miles, and not been stopped. The only problem I had with the HID setup was initially focusing the bulbs inside the ST's headlight housing. I was the original prototype tester on the ST, so BD had no idea (a year ago) how thick a spacer to use for proper focus on the ST. After many, many hours (nights) of trial and error, I achieved the proper thickness spacer for correct focus in the ST. I assume the new "kits" BD is marketing have the proper spacer included. YMMV, of course, and I take no responsibility if someone tries this farkel with the unshielded (or shielded ;-) bulbs and gets into trouble with the law. Dale's setup is far easier to do and much less likely to screw up. I would definitely count in on Dale's BD buy if I didn't already have a pair...hummm...then again my Toyota Avalon could certainly use brighter headlights. Lets see 4 X $280...... Drive brighter...John
