MR11 are HID right, so you'd need 1 ballast /light ?

MR16 are halogen

It looks like there is a HID version of both. They both have the ballast electronics built into the body of the lamp itself so no external boxes to mount.

received mines today thank you !!!!

bought some nice lamp to be mounted on it

http://www.halfords.ie/webapp/wcs/st...egoryId_212516

Mounted the rack and the lights, I just have to connect them now.
(and buy the necessary hardware and find a power supply point)

It was a tough job to drill the holes to attach the lamp but I managed :)

lamps installed and cabled now

left hand side with a view on the switch

right hand side

the relay, fuse, cables just beside the battery.
The relay is actually fixed using the airbox cover screw :p

I used the reg plate light for the relay, so no ignition, no power to the lamp :)

front view (I know, one of the running light is blown and I'm waiting to receive LED replacement)

http://lh3.ggpht.com/_tL3EwxTEUng/Sr...90927-1509.jpg

Close up on the switch (which is illuminated)
it doesn't interfere with the bars/cables and it's big enough to be easy to use with gloves.
And it is of course on the left hand side to be used on the move.

Now I'm waiting for nightfall to setup the lamps correctly :)

All that wouldn't have been possible without Gas_Up_Lets_Go brackets and installation notice.

Kudos to my friend Pete who taught me the basics in electricity and gave me confidence so I wouldn't fry anything too :)

They have just had the last coat of paint. I'm waiting on a delivery of bolts, which should be with me Saturday or Monday. As soon as they arrive I'll pack it all up and ship it out 1st class.

I have some more brackets waiting to be painted too, if anyone wants to put some lighting on their bike over the Christmas break. if you want some, just drop me an email.

I just got Touratech lights for about 2 weeks now.

I always wanted a cheaper solution, but i didn't want to mess with the electrics.

I will post some pics when the snow and grit is off the roads.
