Could you give me some info on what kind of bulbs could i use. I'm not sure what bulbs the previous owner installed, could you also tell me what bulbs are stock ? Thank you!

I put a headlight modulator on it and it flashes road signs in bright daylight.

Can you buy an HID kit that is sized for a motorcycle? All the HID kits I have seen use electronic boxes (power supplies?) that are the size of VHS video tape cassettes, or thereabouts.

I'm hoping there are some kits that are made just for bikes that would have much smaller componentry we could hide on a bike. Wouldn't it be handy for it all to fit in a headlight bucket?

If you think there's good in everyone, you haven't met everyone.

And yes, they sell motorcycle kits. One ballast, one bulb. Prices are not too hot either. I was buying at: http://www.retrosolutionsllc.com , check slim digital 35W, at the bottom there's a motorcycle kit.

Price is much better than the other link. Not sure which kit is the "right" one, but they said our bulb is the equivilant of the H4. http://www.ddmtuning.com/Product-Categories/Motorcycle-HID-Kits-Lighting
