wat I mean is not to keep the high beam on. u will oni glare other road users.

I mean flash the high beam momentarily, so as to warn front road users that u r approaching fast fr behind.

for me once I speed, my finger is always on standby at the "flash lever".

i noticed when travel in 1st lane,usually when cars are travelled in high speed, i notice their head light is always tat bright, for me i on it lo.. no need to flash it. easiler for me so can concentrated all my alertness on the road.

Or you may cause momentary blindness to the drivers of vehicles going from the opposite road and cause them to have an accident after they passed you... If like that, damn jialat leh...

Haha.. I like it when I look at those cars which has very bright white headlights!

 

Some of them.. So very bright.. Lighting up the whole floor in front of them.. Looks like stadium floodlights!

 

Wonder if it is possible for bikes to have headlight as bright as that

Is it car headlights operate at higher wattage as their battery voltage is higher:???:

 

Best is some of them even looks blue-ish..!

The GSX R1K headlights are vertically stacked to allow for a better charging efficiency. Both headlights are multi-reflectors where the top light is low beam and the bottom light is high beam. The headlights are bright 55/65W and the LED taillights have clear external lens. The bike also possesses a gear position indicator.

Are u saying the circular projection lights.. Is a "high beam only" light.. ?

 

And the normal headlights on top of it.. Is a "low beam only" light? I dun think so..

 

Coz that day ride with Fatal.. Saw him a few times on only his projection lights.. the circular one.. The bottom one.. And it doesn't look glaring in my mirror..

 

Fatal.. care to share

The projection light is capable of shining high/low beam at the same time?

What abt the headlights on top of it? High/low also?

 

Wah I confused..

Wah I confused..

the circular projection light that you see is the normal beam.

the one shining together wif it is called the pole light.(a veri small bulb). It is reflexed by the mirror-liked glass inside. the pole light can be changed to white also. but I did not do tat.

so if I on my normal beam, the pole light reflexed is orangish in color. but once I on high beam, the light of the pole bulb will be "covered" by the high beam. Thus, u can only see the normal & high beam, both shining white.

[SilveR1-09]

Ur 'pole' light is outside of the circular projection light rite? Somewhere in the middle if I'm not mistaken.

 

Mine is at the sides.. Changed to blue colour..

Wah, you guys talking about poles. Then Fatal talked about digging his finger deep in... Too many connotations... My mind cannot handle already...

[GT Fazer]

In not so detail & technical term, projection headlights are brighter as it's concentrated beams. Have a look at 04R1 onwards, I'm sure everybody will get irritated by their natural high beam look alike from our mirrors
