Given that the TRX seems to have a headlight akin to a weak candle, I've been toying with a HID set up to improve matters. Anyone done this on their TRX? I found following kit on the Bay of Evil
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Yamaha-TDM850-H4- ... 7C294%3A50
Anyone used one of these kits? Any problems fitting them? Pointers/comments appreciated as always.

Re: HIDs on TRX
i have these on my bike ,, at first i had the old model , thats the bigger one of the two , but the slim one is a lot better you must check all the connectors though as they are not the best ,,, but they are very bright

Re: HIDs on TRX
Many thanks for the response. Think I'll take the plunge and order a kit. Was it easy to fit? Any pitfalls to watch out for...besides the iffy connections!

Re: HIDs on TRX
i had no problems ,, but i have to say the digital ones are a LOT better ,, the H4 bulbs can be a bit of a problem because they have a relay to move them in and out ,, just make sure that the connectors are tight ,,,
