Looking to upgrade my lighting, since i cant see anything at night with this weak headlamp. I cant seem to find much info on this subject. I want to keep a stock sealed beam look but with HID lamp. Anyone have any info? i can find plenty of HID conversion kits but not much on the lamp housing itself. much appreciated.
I used a fog light housing from a land rover with a h3 35 watt bulb conversion. I used one of the motorcycle conversion kits with the mini ballasts. I extended the wiring to the bulb so I could tuck the ballast under my seat.
The cb175 watt bulb is 25/35 I believe. That may be an issue keeping the HID lit with the stock charging system.
The only issue is that the beam pattern isn't great. It lights up the road a hell of allot better than the stock bulb, but sometimes I feel like I'm annoying the crap out of people ahead of me. I'd try to stay away from housings with the flutes, they cause the light to really scatter.
Thought I would reply to this thread since it has someone that had done a HID conversion. I have a CB350 and have new head light assembly, but need to get the conversion kit. Where can I find the right conversion kick for this kind of bike?
Thanks for the link to the website. I guess my next questions are.
1: What type of bulb should I be getting? The housing on my light case say 12v 35w/35w and HID light say H4 12v 60/55w. So do I need to get a H4 bulb?
2: Should I have a Hi/Lo beam HID for a CB350? I only question this because I'm unsure if it would be a 12v 35/35w bulb that is drawing out 35w while on high or if it would be a 12v 35/??w mystery that would totally zap my battery if I ever ran it with a high beam. I guess I'm asking the people that have a single bulb and not the Hi/Lo bulb, if the single bulb does just as good as a job?
Hope that second part wasn't too confusing. Just want to make sure I get the right kit.
