Well WOW is one word that sums it all up just see for yourself. I bought 2 dual sets 55 Watt Bulb Type : H9 Bulb Color 5000K from DDM. I stored the lows Ballast's under the screen like many here:

I also bought the 2 dual sets 55 Watt Bulb Type : H11 Bulb Color 5000K from DDM. Here's some random pics of the high's Ballast's Placement which I placed under the ram air tubes next to the tank utilizing the double sided sticky pads they came with and ran the wires along the tubes to the light housings:





Here's the running Lights install I bought 2 of the 1 watt Natural White P/N: WLED-NWLX from super bright leds. You have to modify the housing a bit by cutting/grinding the castle part of the housing off here:

you then want to remove the side metal thing inside the housing that serves no purpose by doing that you see #1 here insert a slim tool or eyeglass screwdriver #2 which I used:


You the get this with the metal contact out of the housing make sure you bend #1:

after all of that reinsert the metal contact back into the housing and put the bulb in and either epoxy it or elctrical tape it.

If you epoxy it I hear you need to wait for it to dry before you insert it into the light fixture due to lens hazing. I just used electrical tape it seems to work fine. Here's the results:
before:




After:




The only 2 complaints I have with the DDM lights is the H9 dual set came with the the supposed to be "plug and play" wire which wasn't it was this blue and black wire that comes off the ballast and ends with 2 electrical plugs which you plug into your OEM low light harness which I didn't like so I snipped the OEM adapter off and crimped the 2 positives and 2 negatives together other than that the H11 were perfect plug and play kind of loose so I Zip-tied the conecters together so they don't fall apart. The other complaint I have is why is the H11's the High's show a bit of blue at start up but after warm-up about 30 seconds it goes away so really not a complaint just an observation. here:

Well Enjoy!!!!

very nice.
looks great and the output is daylight riding!

i just adjusted them up 2 turns i haven't ridden with them adjusted yet.....

Looks Great, Sorry to here the two kits were not plug a play. The 194 Leds fit right in no cutting required. I did read when you go with the 55 watt set that the color does wash out after warm up and to go with a higher color # if you want a hint of blue. I went with high,Low,& Leds all at 6000K. These sets I have will burn the eyes out of a raccoon at 30 paces LOL. I can not imagine what a 55 watt set must be like. Wow, Congrats. I will Try.

Unfortunately the ones i got from super bright were too fat to fit with the castellated part on them and they were 194's so i dunno some may fit some may not i like the out come. but i have noticed with the 55 Watt the bike off I can hear the ballast humming

Great job on those pics and installs!Your Hi beams after initial warm up will switch instantaneously while riding-there will be no brightness lag.Adjust those lamps out just a tad more on each side-you will know illumination then!!!Good job Doc.

I had a problem with my highs not lighting up all the time or only 1 igniting. Called DDM they told me the motorcycles dont generate enough power all the time to ignite the highs, but told me mostly have more trouble with the 55 watt sets more so than the 35w. So I purchased the relay harness for the highs and problem solved. Just a heads up in case you run into trouble with your highs.

I have yet to have that problem. I can run highs/lows all day everyday no problem. Except my highs are useless cause I rotated the lights up 2 which doesn't bother me 55W lows are bright enough to see a ways in front of me. So the highs are used for bird watching at the tops of trees or signaling aircraft in Morse code.

Dr yea mine worked fine for awhile. just posted so everyone would know the fix if and when they had problems

gottcha

Scottjkyl, DrHardin and Blue07

Thanks for the info. Another question if I only go with one which one should I go with highs or lows?

Lows

So the highs are used for bird watching at the tops of trees or signaling aircraft in Morse code.

2nd

y choose they are cheap enough just get both, youll be glad you did. my highs are awesome no bird watching on mine but i only went up 3 turns

def the lows

Can anybody tell me where is the best place to get them form?

55watters,6,000K...they're adjusted "off center" for night riding.When yer standing about 3,4 feet to the left side there(oncoming lane)you don't see the blast(except if yer runnin yer highs(that' a NO NO for me)
