The dipped factory light seemed ok, but the main looked woeful - at least when viewed from this perspective. The LED's as infill worked superbly well; nice work.

I am a prospective buyer of the Himalayan 2020 recently launched in India here. Am very excited about owning one. It would be my first motorcycle if I actually got one. So, ecstatic. Yeah. The headlight set up seemed really great. Thank you for your videos. Informative & insightful . Thanks again

Thanks David, I probably won't be using them that often, but when I do need them (running late to arrive at a camp ground for instance) I'll be really glad I've got them.

Your camera angle is just right, a lot better now than your previous videos. Thanks for sharing your mods and rides on the Himalayan. Thinking of getting one when the EFI version comes out.

How far we've come over the last 4, even 3 decades with advancements in lighting. From crappy old sealed beams to halogen (which was a big improvement) to H.I.D. (mostly on automobiles) and finally to what surely is the best yet, LED lighting and their energy-sipping properties. That said, there's still a lot of things could be said for people and the tendency to shine high beams in opposing drivers' faces.... Some people just need "educating" quite badly, but let's not go quite there on this channel :)
@DangarMotorcycling
@DangarMotorcycling 6 лет назад
You're not wrong Stan, lighting has come along in leaps and bounds. Yes, a big part of this setup was being able to switch off all the high beam lighting with a single switch right near my hand. I'm glad I went this way.

Hi , I had my LEDs mounted on my hand guards but I've now moved them next to the headlight , much happier with the new set up. Cheers.

Yes, I think lower down is better.
@hobbyaddict9908
@hobbyaddict9908 6 лет назад
Definitely a great choice in both the lights and the alignment! I would consider installing another set (perhaps flood beams) but align them with the low beam headlamp just to give better close in lighting. As you might guess I am a big fan of being able to see what is in front of me.
@DangarMotorcycling
@DangarMotorcycling 6 лет назад
Thanks mate. I'm not sure if the video does it justice, but I think it you rode with these you would be comfortable with how well you can see what is in front of you and coming up ahead.

Great work as per usual. As an avid mororcycle tourer and overlander (4wd tourer) of many years personally and respectfully think you have your aiming wrong. In my experience potholes, gravel and bark etc aren't the biggest danger on Australian roads at night. Kangaroos, emus and wallabies etc scare me way more. I would be more inclined to aim my auxiliary lights to cover the edges of the road than the road itself. I have also been very conscious of upgrading the low beam when upgrading high beams to reduce the effect of blindness caused by going from lots of light (high beam with auxiliary lights) to a usually pathetic low beam. Upgrading the low beam in the landcruiser to LED and the bike to HID (whilst allegedly not legal) made touring far more comfortable. I am more than happy to flout with technicalities than flout with funeral parlours. In saying that I have always been conscious of cut offs and other road users. Great video nonetheless!
@DangarMotorcycling
@DangarMotorcycling 6 лет назад
I do agree that kangaroos and emus are one of the biggest dangers on Australian roads, and with regards to kangaroos it doesn't have to be that far out of the cities either. One thing I do find with them is that they tend to bolt across the road because of car lights. Almost every time I have had it happen to me is on high beam rather than low beam so on a good road with kangaroos around I would be inclined to just ride on low beam. Having said that, these lights do spread a large amount of light sideways, and I do think spreading them a little bit wider could be a good idea.

l love the channel btw. Can't wait to see what you do to the beastie next. Maybe a more elegant sleeping solution when touring? The monster swag spoils the look a bit. Still waiting for the dangar motorcycling t-shirts....
@ronpowell2373
@ronpowell2373 6 лет назад
The roos will always hop to a route they can see the ground on. So when you come barrelling along on high beam, you do two things- scare them - so they want to run away, and light up a path they can see the ground along, so that's the y way they will go. Straight into your path. Wombats are dumber - they are just waddling along. Hit one of those in a semi and you can lose the truck, hit one on your bike and lose your life!
@RandalLovelace
@RandalLovelace 6 лет назад
One of the concerns I've had with getting the RE Himalayan is that the headlight doesn't turn with the tire, with this set up you did it allows them to follow the tire, so this is a mod that I will be doing as soon as I can.
@DangarMotorcycling
@DangarMotorcycling 6 лет назад
It's certainly a good combination having the one light move and one stay still.
@RandalLovelace
@RandalLovelace 6 лет назад
Will probably double down on this and have two 'handlebar mounted' that will be lower power and stay on with the 'clearance lights' and then the two on the fork mount like these are. Cheers and thanks for the great content.

Thumbs up to that. One part you could have added is with low beam and then using the passing light, what effect does that have?
@DangarMotorcycling
@DangarMotorcycling 6 лет назад
Ah, very good question! My last bike didn't have that switch so I didn't even think to test it. I'm hoping it works just like the main high beam switch but I will test it and show it in a future video.

Good video buddy. Auxiliary light absolutely great . Is the main headlight intensity sufficient? Will there be any upgrades on your motorcycle in near future?
@DangarMotorcycling
@DangarMotorcycling 6 лет назад
Thanks Gautham. I'm happy with the main headlight but I have heard people upgrade the globe so I may do that when it gets a bit older. Next change I am going to make is adding a switch for the hazard lights that got removed, putting in thicker tubes and maybe doing some performance mods after that too.

@ronpowell2373
@ronpowell2373 6 лет назад
Stu - if the Himalayan is typical of modern bikes and cars, don't go the 'bigger globe' route - unless you like spending money on globes. The issue is the wiring - battery to relay, relay to globe, globe to ground , is minimum size and operating at max capacity with the standard globe. So when you go a higher rated globe, the wiring acts as a resister and the filament doesn't quite get to full temp. That means the filament doesn't quite get to full flexibility and so a good road bump and the filament breaks. A change to a proper LED head light would work. HIDs are illegal for lenses not designed for them ( beam properties are wrong) . But those 'driving lights' are near perfect - good go getting them right on the first adjustment. The camera angle is spot on now I reckon as we can see the dash very clearly. And the helmet mic works very well, a lot of others that have been doing the same sort of thing for a long time could learn from you.
@t.a.kalsekar
@t.a.kalsekar 6 лет назад
Aha now it makes sense why you wanted them that way. They turned out way brighter than I expected them too. Why didn't you go for one of those 12W ones with 6 LED in each one?
@DangarMotorcycling
@DangarMotorcycling 6 лет назад
I mainly went with these lights as I had one of Donowyn's mounting brackets and they suited it well. I have a longer lightbar on my boat and it is good too, but it is very focused on one spot so these two give me a wider coverage.
@t.a.kalsekar
@t.a.kalsekar 6 лет назад
Dangar Motorcycling Alright, that makes sense. I always wondered why people went for these round ones instead of those square ones now it all makes sense. Thanks 👍

I think it should be fine. I think the output of the coil is high enough, they just have a bad reputation for failing and needing replacement.

@indianomicstv
@indianomicstv 6 лет назад
I do wonder why to ride with high beam on highway given the conditions are totally opposite back here in India. You will rarely find an Indian highway empty at night (before 12 mid night). This where most of the guys riding bikes with Aux lamps hampering visibility of incoming cars. I think you can leave a disclaimer that this set up works best when you do not drive through heavy traffic? Your call mate, but feel that a lot of us Indians who follow you, may think little as much as you do!
@DangarMotorcycling
@DangarMotorcycling 6 лет назад
Yes, India highways certainly had a lot more traffic that many Australian highways. In Australia it is also considered very bad form to have high beam headlights on when another car is approaching. If people see the lights of another car approaching (like I did in this video) they will switch to low beam before the car has actually come into sight. I think Indian Hellrider is doing a good job on educating people about this. Personally I installed these lights more for the rare situation where I am on a camping trip in the middle of nowhere and haven't managed to arrive at my camp site before dark. I think that is all I will really use them for.
