[Hoist!]

The XtraLight site shows the Deep Blue bulbs at 8000K and the Crystal White at 4300K. I wanted as much light as possible out of them, but wanted to have the White Lamps. Can't be done, huh? Are there Blue Spots available at all? I've seen all the setups with the Blue Headlights and White or Yellowish Spots. Looks a little funny that way. Any changes to what's available spotlight wise? Are the 4300K Crystal White one bright enough, or must I go with the Deep Blue?

The 4300k bulbs will blow your socks off. They are actually the brightest. They do make my spots look like yellow turn signals tho.

I just put the HID lights in the scoot and they are BRIGHT!!  What a difference.  I used the H9 Extralights 4200 degree color bulbs.  My SEUC has the two bulb headlamp so the install was really easy.  Still had room in the fairing, and don't have any interference from the radio or other electronic gizmo's.  A really big thanks to Twolanerider and hd-dude for the help and product.  If your like me (old) and want to ride at night these things are a must.  And they are not chrome, so I don't have to report them at my next Chromeaholics meeting!

Glad to see you got them done Walt.  It is a nice improvement.  Sure is nice to find out you can suddenly see at night again!

Glad you like them Walt! As 2lane said you never really realize how much you missed without these until you've had them. I for one will never have a bike without them!

I upgraded my Headlight a few years back with the Headwinds 5 3/4 lamp with Silver stars  bulb.
 
Those who have gone with the single hi/low HID Zeon from xtralights how do you like them?
 
Much difference between the dual or worth switching to the dual?
 
Great thread!
