6000K HID Kit on my 07 GS500F

I installed my H4 Bi-Xenon 6000K HID Kit that I ordered from xenonlink.com this morning. I got started about 5am and finished up and did a test ride at 9:30am.
This is my first HID kit install on any vehicle and took my time to make sure it was a good clean install. I soldered, shrink tubed and electrical taped all splices made in the wires. I used some velcro to hold the relay to the bodywork on the right side of the bike. The ballast uses one of the screws holding the body work together and a good amount of velcro to hold it in place. I'll take some pics tonight to show how bright it really is.

I have a Xenonlink 6k HID Kit for my k6 gsxr600, and mines was plug and play. May i ask where you grounded your relay to?

I ran a ground wire all the way back to the battery! Mine was a plug and play kit also.

I was thinking about doing that, but didn't for the reason you can see in your 2nd night picture. The light goes everywhere...it's not really focused as it was intended to be. Besides that though looks like you did a real clean install.

Also might I ask what you did about the light being on before the bike starts? I know most HID kits I looked at said that if there is the light is always on to disable it(the bikes light always being on before the bike being started).

From what I've noticed the light comes on for less than 10 secs before my bike is started. i don't see that as a problem. I'll do an update of any issues after I get to ride it around some more. I'm at MSF course this weekend and I hope to ride it alot next week.

Also I thought it was a traffic law to have the head light on at all times.
