Probably the most sensible video on aux lights in India. Thank you for sharing the Govt. document supporting it.

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@kkhaanabadoshh thanks brother, your appreciation comment means a lot

[@AnomitraDas]

hey, just one last thing. there is an accessory port beneath the tank. you could have done your relay from there.

[@anilkumawat4121]

Usually, I dont comment on videos, Great video, man, and the link you have attached 🫡🫡 Thank you for explaining everything in detail. I was searching for an aux light for my TVs Ronin Also, 1 free tip, create the affiliate link and Add the link in your description. You can always request your audience for support 😊

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@anilkumawat4121 thanks Anil, it means a lot and i was actually thinking about affiliate stuff, i will look into it

[@SumitBisht0]

Thanks man, even I was not able to get actual legal standing from others about aux light.

[@rudraansharohra]

I have used same lights on my Honda cb 350 and it costed me all inclusive 15500 including labour for installation. Trust me it gave me life the original led headlight was pathetic. I was frequent traveling from mumbai to pune n Nasik. In city too i used it wherever there were dark roads. Though RE has officially launchrd its aux lights don't know how much their luminous intensity is.

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@rudraansharohra RE original are not that good

[@brigtfamevlogs]

Hi Bro your video was so informative. The second thing is that I am from Bangalore, and I had to pay challan for fog lights. Cops are saying that fog lights are banned. is this true that we cannot use foglights in Bangalore?

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@brigtfamevlogs yeaah bro, lot of my friends faced this, and police is stupid enough to not listen to any arguments, even when i told them that manufacturer itself is selling AUX lights right now then how can it be illegal, just thing is don’t argue with them too much try to negotiate. And place your light as low as possible and don’t use it in city specially on main roads

[@somikgoswamy4933]

Bbai quesyis about i use hella fog light it does not penetrate fog in. Benaras Allahabad region What is your opinion about liu hjg and maddog

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@somikgoswamy4933 i have not used hella, but to work well in actual fog you have to place them as low as possible

[@DerperDoing]

Hey! Did you consider getting Maddog Delta over Alpha or you straight away knew you wanted the Alpha? I'm planning to get one for my Himalayan but not sure which of the two I should pick.

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@DerperDoing i saw all, delta is square in shape and dosent goes well the aesthetics of the bike also its 6400 lumens , whereas alpha is 9600 lumens, i went with the logic of bigger is better, as i drive a lot in country side trails and in mountains and i need more light

[@DerperDoing]

@@gentlemenandmotorcycles I see! Thanks for the swift reply.

[@BitanBiswas24]

himalayan head light is 60w LED and Maddog Alpha both combined is 80w, for your information ;)

[@raunakkumar8721]

Oo bhaii 60 watt 😂😂 60 watt ki himmy 411 ke halogen bulb ho sakte hai 60 watt ki led 450 pe to kahi se nahi lagti muskil se mushkil 30 watt led hogi

[@soumyajyotidey1565]

But don't recommend nighteye, please. Nighteye is for blinding people. Isse accha osram 4200k 50w laga lete, beam pattern bhi best h, logon ke aankhon me bhi stress nhi pdega

Great video! I am planning to get the Mad dogs for my Himalayan, How is the throw on the highway with the location where you have placed? Everyone is getting it installed on the cage and not on the engine guards the problem is that if the bike has a crash most likely the lights will get damaged. I have the same OEM engine guard and thinking should i install it on the same place like you have

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

Firstly i am really impressed with these lights, i believe little expensive as HJGs are also good for less price but there is very less chance you will find them original as lot of local floating around. Install them within the guard in that case there is less chance you will damage them, and also install frame sliders on your gaurd, that will provide some extra protection in case of a fall.

[@VarunDayanand]

@@gentlemenandmotorcycles how is the throw on the highway at this position ? I want to see ahead instead of right below

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@VarunDayanand see if you need to see ahead then place the lights little higher, thats what i explained in the video too. Better get a good adjustable clamp, in highway honestly these are good, don’t use yellow filters in highway and adjust for long throw.

[@VarunDayanand]

@@gentlemenandmotorcycles Awesome. Thank you 🤩

[@saurabhbarbighaiya739]

Boss agar himalayan 450 or triumph scrm 400x me se kisi ek ko pick karna ho for long touring ke liye to seating comfort, engine calmness, power, or reliablity ke hisab se kon sa bike change? I am asking just to influence my decision....

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

Brother i made a video on exactly same question kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJ-Xi4SLpc-qoJIsi=xvj_XoymS4Q7no0k Still to answer , if you looking for long touring, i assume you would need to mount luggage too. Then go for Himalayan 450

[@GV_Memes]

Hello Bro, Any info about add-aftermarket DRL light cars.

Maine Bengaluru me shop pe liya tha, aap online bhi le sakte ho amazon me hai, bumper protection search karo

Very informative video brother ❤ . Crash guard sliders kon sa brand ka liye aap aur price bata dijiye.?

Can I install 4 fog lights in my bike below headlight?? 2 mini drive and 2 6000lm . HJG 124. ?? for situational use.

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

You can install any number of lights, but I am sure if you live in a metro, you might land in trouble with police

[@gitartha.guitarist]

@@gentlemenandmotorcycles for situational use? i.e during fog, rain ??

Hey, just a quick question, did you apply PPF on your bike, since you are using tank bag with magnets, will it damage the paint on the tank?

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

No bro not yet, i am not getting time itself to get it done,,, 😭

[@sairaj5660]

​@@gentlemenandmotorcycles lol bro 😆, then I should also get PPF done on my himalayan, I just hope the tank bag doesn't scratch the paint

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@sairaj5660 tank bag will not scratch it if its matt color

But bro i recommend to get it done, i will also get it done,

Finally someone who has actually done some legitimate research. This is some quality content. The "thumb rule" police use is the aux lights should be placed lower than your indicators. As long as this condition is met, you are okay.

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

True, and important your light should not hurt someone eyes

[@youknowwho3154]

Challan or no challan depnds on the police officer. I tried explaining this to the officer, he laughed his ass off and gave me 700Rs challan. Indian Law enforcement is filled with uneducated idiots who have no interest to listen to the public, and incorporate new ideas into their standards of policing. Guess what suggestion officer gave me: If stock headlamps are not sufficient for night drives, then avoid driving at the night.

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@youknowwho3154 tell him if people avoid riding in night, then whom will they challan, i mean Manufacturer itself selling the aux lights but these guys are literally illiterate, point is they have their monthly targets, even if they know u are right they will cut the challan. In Bengaluru they are cutting challan for top boxes, can you think

[@youknowwho3154]

@@gentlemenandmotorcycles Exactly, but last thing I want is to argue with a police officer. They caught another group of bikers, one of them had Ninja bike with stock exhaust. Officer claimed its modified, they argued with him and officer took their documents and send them away to nearest police station. God knows what happened to those guys. I just paid the fine and left. Apart from that challan issued wasn't electronic. They printed a receipt and demanded cash payment. Idiots can't differentiate between two cylinder engine bike and bike with modified exhaust.

[@gentlemenandmotorcycles]

@@youknowwho3154 its a way to deal with them, like educated people, no need to fight, let them do the challan, if you feel its genuine, you can get rid of it from court, its not a difficult process

[@youknowwho3154]

@@gentlemenandmotorcycles I agree with you
