i saw in some other website
they manage to install HID lamp for R6

just for curiosity
1. is the HID lamp system for car would be the same for any motorbike to install

2.do we have to buy specific HID system to fit in zx-6r (especially)

any theories?

I looked at a HID conversion for my 500 but was put off by the price.
The following website gives useful info on HID Xenon.
http://www.hids4u.co.uk/products.asp?cat=13
Looks a straightforward installation & they list setups for bikes so it must be something that is readily available & do-able
Do a web search to see what is available in your country

As I was doing a fair bit of night riding I replaced the standard halogen bulb with ordinary xenon and got a worthwhile improvement, it was noticeably brighter for not much cost.

normal xenon bulb exist?
they sell them like helogen too?

or they come with ballast etc (install like HID)
or just replace the bulb?

Got xenon bulbs for my bike & car from here

More info about them on the site

They are NOT HID but straight replacement for halogen bulbs.

they give approx 30% more light than halogen

I was and still interesed in the same idea. I just upgraded to PIAA bulbs and they made a huge differnece. 55w bulbs produce 110w of light. You might consider going PIAA, its worth the $80 they cost.http://http://www.piaa.com/Bulbs/Bulbs-H7.html There a lot of info on HID conversions on www.kawiforums.com Theres several people who have had great success with them. However I found lots of info warning that retro fit kits might blind on commers. I dont know if thats true on the ZX6R because the low beam bulb has hood to prevent blinding light.
