So what if you were to put HID's in both the highs and low beam. Would it bring the projections of the two back together?

Yes and you'll have twice the lighting ! The problem when you do HID's in the low only is they drown out the highbeams . But with HID's in both hi and low you'll be able to use the hi's like never before!

You guys should not waste your money on anything but a good set of HIDS.
The projectors on our bikes scream HID. They offer the best light pattern that is very controlled and won't blind on coming cars, like HIDS in a reflective type housing.
I have these installed on mine and love them.

They are not the best but for $65.00 a set, they are well worth the money spent.
If you want the brightest light output, just remember that 4300- 4500K temps are the brightest. After that, the output will gradually decrease the higher the K temps are and will start the blue effects to purple.
I ride allot in the dark and they are as good as my wife's Lexus HID'S
Also, don't forget to adjust the height of the lows, they are way to low at factory settings.
If anyone goes with this brand I have some tips with the install.

+1 on adjusting the beams! They are much too low stock!
