Xenon Headlights

[Sport]

Is there anything special about adding Xenon (High Intisity Discharge) blue Headlights to our ST other than purchasing and installing a bulb, or two? Is there any hardware that must be added?

Fitting the bulbs themselves is dead easy, just take out old bulbs pop in new ones, presto. I fitted them to my tiger and they have made a difference, peripheral light seems better.
I don't about the st, but on the tiger the front fairing needs to come off and then undo the headlight housing. Not a 5 min' job.

Just put a set of 100/90W in my ST. They put out a nice white light. The 60/55W Xenon also put out a nice whit light that is brighter than the standard Halogen, the 100/90 is even brighter. The only problem with putting them in is that you have to take the nosecone off the bike and remove the headlight housing. No different than replacing standard bulbs and it isn’t that hard, just time consuming. Takes about an hour. The H4 Xenon bulbs are drop-in replacements.

Jerry, where did you get the bulbs, is there a specific vendor and part number, and how much did they cost?

Thanks, Eric

These are the ones I bought. That links is to the next set up for auction. Was a very easy transaction. Ordered them on a Thursday and received them the following Monday. I just ordered a spare set.
