Xenon Headlights?

   Has anyone fitted an aftermarket HID Xenon headlight kit to their RSV?

Would the extra vibrations cause premature failure?

	Yes, I have. I fitted it to the (single) dip light on my '04 Tuono. To date I've had no problems. I only fitted it last week but I have done approx 400 miles.

	Was It a farily straight forward fit? And was it from the same seller as the ebay seller above?

	I have to both my dips. Buy the HID kits with the tiny ballasts. These are easier to locate and I fitted mine to the fairing inners left and right...just enough room. Cost me £58 delivered, came from ebay from a guy in Canada...postage was a week fitting was a ball ache 2 hours (as having to find somewhere to put wiring etc). Worth doing, lights are amazing, but I always start engine with Mains on, so the HID are not, then turn them on once engine has started. Just seems the sensible thing to do.
