Hi guys, I am ready to install a Xenon HID kit (bikegear.co.za)on my 2008 GSA.

Question I have is related to the fact that one cannot start the BMW's with the "headlight off" as it is always on i.e. the light cannot be switched off as on the KTM. Will this not cause problems for the ballast and Xenon light as it need more power etc to power up and takes a short while to "click" on?  :-\

Thinking especially of those times that one turns the starter motor twice or so when the engine does not fire first time.

Adventurer , maybe you can help on this one

Cheers
