pipedr,

do you use the HID bulb with the original reflector, or did you change that as well?

I read that dispersion patterns are different when using a regular bulb or an HID.

Did a quick test (during daylight today), I aimed the beam way down and it's true, if I stand at some distance in front of the bike (and a little left) I get the beam reflected at me directly. I can only imagine how bad it is during night.

Unfortunately the bike is back at the shop tonight, so I won't have time to play with it.

I never had HID on any of my vehicles prior to this, so I am a little lost here. Since it is the reflection from the top part of the reflector, I can perhaps play with the orientation and placement of the bulb. I noticed that there is a "V" light shield under the bulb... perhaps I can rotate that shield to the top?

Thanks for the input !
