  I've had Silverstar 55W bulbs in my 09' since nearly new and have been pleased with the light output. Then I found a Visionari 5000k (white-white) H.I.D.conversion kit on eBay for $41.99 shipped and wondered how good could a cheap setup be? They supposedly last 3000 hours and have a a year warranty and 1-800 number for replacement parts, if needed. A day or two to consider it and they shipped out Monday and arrived today.  lol   Pleasantly surprised was my 1st reaction. The kit appears well constructed with water proof connections, plug-n-play simplicity and a price about equal to a pair set of short-lived Silverstars. How short? A few hours after I ordered the H.I.D. kit, the low beam on my bike burned out. No kidding!   I had to enlarge the hole through the rubber bulb protectors to accomodate the grommets made into the new wiring and bend the wire bulb holders in a little to get a snug fit. But, the installation was really straightforward and took about 1 hour. I did just the low beam first - keeping the halogen high beam for comparison. Key on and WOW! The Silverstar halogen bulb looks like a flashlight with mediocre batteries next to the H.I.D. A claimed 200w of light with just 35w of current draw each and so far, the kit seems like money well spent. Can't wait to try 'em out with a night ride!   eddie  

Here's a link to the HID kit I bought.   [b]http://tinyurl.com/2b6oanm[/b]   eddie
