Hi Umit - Are you considering the HID driving lamp version, or the regular fog light (halogen beam)?

If you're planning on the regular (and much cheaper!) fog beam, and haven't put you money down yet - read this first:

Basically what they are saying is that fog beam patterns have limited use on a bike (the sharp upper cut off angle, and the short range - good for lighting the sides of the road, and for fog when the bike is upright, but not as improved penetration).

I've just ordered a pair of PIAA 004X driving lamps, which are very small and neat and have halogen 'blue light' type bulbs (the reviews I've seen say they offer excellent performance, especially for the money). The 004X lamps have a spot beam (rather than fog or flood) as I essentially want to improve the long range high-beam illumination on the bike. Most importantly perhaps, they also have a round beam pattern rather than oval (like a lot of car-based lamps) have - which means you can mount them horizontally or vertically, and they won't cut off when you lean into a corner... Obviously depending on where you mount them, you can angle them up/down in/out to get the spread you desire.

btw. for anyone else considering auxillary lights, if you didn't know already the Touratech lamps are Hella Micro DEs with modified brackets and an aluminium shroud... very nice (in a Terminator/Mad Max sort of way), but you pay's your money etc.

ps. Please don't think I'm criticising the Hella DE lamps Umit, I love the look of them (and the quality), it's only that for them to offer any real benefit, you need to get the driving lamp version, which are HID and thus a lot more money!
