I dropped in a hid conversion this spring. Only trouble I had was the +battery connector was flimsy and I had to replace it. Other than that, it has been good. I got it from hidcountry.com, actually from their ebay store which had free shipping at the time and was still $5 cheaper.
It is BRIGHT. And yet I have not had a chance to ride at night so I am not sure on my dispersal pattern.
The kit came with a ballast, relay, and some high voltage box with all its own wiring. it uses the headlight controls but that is it. No heat or wiring issues. I think the bulb is cooler as it is more efficient and draws less wattage.
I got the "dual" bulb 35w kit. The dual bulb is misleading though as it is just an electromagnet to change the angle of the bulb.
The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!
