I kinda like the demon eyez better.
No way, go with the halo's. High Bimmin is awesome, check out www.highbimmin.com. The guy who runs high bimmin is very active on www.r6messagenet.com. I frequent r6 message net quite often and everyone seems to be satisfied with their products.

those are kinda ugly...and far too expensive. Just go with LED's and vynil holders:

What are Vinyl Holders?
DUDE!!! BIKER BOYZZZZ!!!! :thumb: .....................
they're little rubber sockets that hold standard LED's. They snug into a drilled hole like 109 wedge bulb holders. You can get them at radioshack. I'm trying to get Rupes to send me some pics of Sentinel...he's got the same setup, but I can't find the pics with the lights on:

yeaa those are a DIY item ... i knew some guys that where making there own for there cars ... all you need is the clear rods that go to windo blids ... use your stove top (if its a popane type) to shape it and then you take a knife or saw and make slits every so many cm. and then put your led's in there .. all they do :)

That's a really good idea.
I just have to figure out what LED's to put in and what resistors. I haven't done that in SOOOO long. about 9 years. (high school)
you can use just about any blue or ultraviolet LED's with a 220 ohm resistor. Ebay always has full sets.
or you could do the angel eyes...because those look badass.
the guys on the 600rr forums retrofit the R1/R6 projector lights and do the angel eyes...
because of the shape of the headlight lense, I think the angel eyez are gonna be my first mod over the winter. That is when and if I get the damn bike. I should though... We'll see.
demon/angel eyes are illegal in MA.
hmmm...I wonder what something like that would look like on the gt650r...As far as for you, I would definitly go with the angel eyes

So isn't all the light mods I've done with my GS, but in one years time, I've been pulled over 0 times.
~Yellow headlight bulbs
~color changing LED bulb replacing the front parking bulb
~Knight Rider lights in the rear (This one's a BIG no no, but it's a safety thing, so cops don't care)
~LED license plate bolts. (RED - another big no no)
Do the angel eye's. I was going to do the 750 but decided to wait and not be the guinney (sp?) pig. Besides I got other stuff instead.

I think he's referring to the colored lights. Maybe.
If he's referring to the white as well, then he's just plain WRONG. :laugh:
it's not too bright to fork out the money for something like demon or angel eyes in a state that they're illegal.
The demon and angel eyes are purely cosmetic and for show bikes. You run your bike with those on at night and you WILL get pulled over; and most likely towed. Dont say I didnt warn you An. Go ahead and ask in some of the New England forums, they will tell you the same. Mak I realize that BMW uses a similar headlight, but demon and angel eye mods are Illegal in MA. Period. There is no arguing that; I didnt make the law. Talk to your congressman or something if you've got a problem with it.
Yes, the BMWs have something similar, but you'll find that car/bike laws are both very different. The pic you posted of the 5-series is with just the parking light running I believe. While driving the low-beam is always on. If you're gonna spend that much money on a parking light for your bike... :icon_rolleyes:

the colored lights are definitly illegal and eye-catching to police. The white ones you MIGHT be able to get away with, but I dont remember you saying you were gonna get white ones.... I dont think it's worth the risk in this state; especially since they cost so much. Again, go check out the NE forums. There's a reason why noone around here runs angel or demon eyes.
I guess you didn't see my additions a couple months back...

THESE are HIGHLY illegal because they are MOVING lights. I've had puhlenty of police behind me in traffic (even State Police) and not one has pulled me over. And you most likely know that Staties are the highest strung cops out there with sticks so large up their cavities.
I did see your nightrider light.

check out this thread. it's about you. :icon_mrgreen:
I dont mean any offense; it'll just give you some good answers hopefully.
why not take the money from the demon/angel eyes and invest it into something worthwhile... like frame sliders, better gear, or a power commander?
..........................assuming you actually DO get the bike :icon_rolleyes:
Let me clarify...
About lighting on any vehicle... The ONLY legal lighting in MA is the stock lighting. NOTHING ELSE!!! I've done the research. I'm the light law expert. Trust me. I KNOW IT'S ILLEGAL.
And I know that SOMEWHERE, some cop WILL pull me over for having lights like that. I will take the risk. And besides... I'm pretty sure I NEVER mentioned ANY COLOR. I wouldn't ride around with blue or red, but I'd like to get blue for show.
I think I should repeat myself... I KNOW THESE ARE ILLEGAL IN MA.

Yeah, again, angel eyes are legal in EVERY state.
Colors are legal in EVERY state, so long as they're sealed gas, untinted bulbs, and so long as they do not strobe. If the "demon eye" effect was illegal every HID equiped car out there would be target.
colors are NOT legal in CA. white or amber for anything but headlights (which must be white) up front, amber or red for anything but tail/brake lights out back (which must be red).
HID's arent illegal, but blue lights are.
Ever see HID's powering up, or idle? Also the majoraty of the HID temps have a blue or green "hue". You won't get a lot of fuss unless you're glowing or something but there's a lot of exceptions.
you're missing my point. I am aware the HID's run blue. but they're HID's and are OEM equipment. and legal. Actual blue lights (aftermarket) are not legal. If the headlights arent HID's you'll get pulled over and given a ticket here in Ca. Hell, if they ARE HID's but arent original to the car you'll get the same ticket.
it doesn't have to be OEM equipment...but you have to have DOT paperwork to prove their legitimacy (which is difficult considering DOT approved HID kits are no longer available thanks to morons putting them in composit housings).
I'm not familiar with Cali's laws as I've never really had an opportunity to sift through a CA book, but there's a similar ban on colored lighting in almost every state I have checked into...but it applies strickly to colored bulbs (tinted glass) or tinted reflectors. There's a few DOT approved bulb varieties that burn with a colored hue.
my vote is for the angel eyes. looks mean.
sure id go for that, but hell keep it stock, sure thats a kitty cat mod, but ehh :laugh:
