Title: What are these headlamps?
Post by: JimboRX-7 on January 25, 2004, 11:11:02 AM
Does anyone know what these headlamps are?  Are they glass or polycarbonate? (Thinking about high power bulbs)

I looking for some new lamps so I can see where I\'m going at night!

Cheers!

As Brian said.

They are nice, and good on beam but other than that not great.  I think this may be my fault though, as in the past year I have never remembered to pop the lights up when washing it.  They are probably filthy.

Mmm they look good.  Are they glass or plastic?  Do you know what type of bulbs they use?  (H1, H4 etc)

Is one dip, and one main?

Might even have a go at building something similar...

they looks like they are mostly for show ... the real lights are tucked in the front opening. (look like a pretty big set of drive lights too)

They now have a HID kit as well for those which makes illumination better.

Miguel has the HID kit on his FD.

Thanks for the info.  Does anyone know if/where I can buy the twin lights?  I don\'t see them on the knightsports website.

Cheers.

Knightsports page

http://www.knightsports.co.jp/catalog/aeroparts/typeIII-001.html

difficult to navigate their site

THanks for the link.  If I\'m understanding their page, they\'re 88000 Yen, which I think will come in at over £600 :(

Might still look at building something with some Cibie headlamps.  They\'re about £25 each!:
