    I always upgrade the lights on my bikes. What has worked for you, front, back and indicators. Can you upgrade driving lights in wing mirros?

    Dont want to mess about with hid kits etc just plug and play.

    No - I did the double headlamp conversion a while ago and then ordered some LED bulbs (only to find out they aren’t compatible). So it was on the list to get something brighter and then a post this morning reminded me.

    Was the double headlight mod difficult? Looks much better than one sided.

    Mate, that is awsome. I always thought it was a tecky job but your write up and photos are spot on thank you. I feel confident to give it a go. Do you just e mail that guy to buy his kit?

    I will have to wait until i get my bike. Hoping to get a Black edition like yours.

    Did much the same as boothman, after using LED bulbs went to the dual light mod, and imo it looks great. As boothman I now want some better bulbs so will be eager to hear his review on the Philips bulbs as they’re what I’ve been looking at. Re fitment, I was nervous to begin as hate wiring but it was a doodle! Massively changes the look and as a plus no more “you’ve got a bulb out mate” on every single ride out :rolleyes::rolleyes: B5D7E1C6-B3DB-44FA-9310-F0CCAC6507D2.jpeg A231AE46-FE51-4ED5-903D-ECBF9F20A124.jpeg

    I've just fitted autoLED UK LED's.
    Plug and play with no messing around. The retaining spring was a little fiddly to get on.
