Sorry- GL 1000....

Forget the electricity. It is the original headlight thats the problem. This is for little girls. Buy a new and bigger with new reflector and the problem is solved. When I drive together with others they ask me why it shines so bright. It is only the headlight with its new reflector, not a powerful lightbulb or anything else.


But if you combined a new headlight with an HID your powers of illumination would become unstoppable!

True, the lens and reflector in the savage aren't very good.
I don't know if they're any direct replacements that are better.

A HID unit can be a bulb and ballast and more correctly done with a projector lens.  If you're at a place w/inspections, you might want to ask.  Most say can't upgrade to HID if it wasn't a factory option.  I believe HD has a factory option HID.

Most upgrade units are plug in.

Verslagen1, the same words I heard from the owners of other brands-Yamaha, Honda... why in the factories or the dealers do not establish other headlights of head light?

How about one of these?

Stick an HID system in one of those and, with less strain on your alternator, everyone will think the sun came out.
