I had a relay on my old RK's passing lamps (using 37.5w quartz bulbs from CCI) with an 80/100w bulb in the headlight.
Cibie (French) is another good brand, but I could only find these in Daniel Stern Lighting and they were $75 each without a bulb.

Thanks for that link on the Hella. I was trying to find somewhere to buy the Cibie other than from Daniel Stern but had no luck.
So would you say the Hella e-spec makes a big difference over stock??? Are these made specifically for bikes or just 7" round lights in general. And would it make a difference if it wasn't m/c specific. I had an HID kit installed. Even though the lighting was much better it started having operating problems so I removed it. Don't wanna take a chance of being stranded w/o a headlight.
