I love your videos, great work. I also have a 2011 GSX1250FA. I am thinking of upgrading my lights and plan to do what you have done before playing around with HID or LEDs. I am also interested in adding hand guards. I watched your vid where you fitted the Touratech hand guards and I read where you took them off. I see on this video a different set of guards, can you please tell me a little about them? I liked the guards on my old VStrom and these look similar. Would you recommend them?
I made another video (you can see it on my channel) in which I describe exactly how to install the V-Strom hand guards, which, by the way, are the correct guards for this bike. You will need some additional parts which are detailed in the video. If you need any more help, please, let me know. I think you will be so pleased with the upgraded headlight bulb you won't find any need to go with HIDs or LEDs.
I haven't tested LED headlamps in any of my bikes, but with the correct bulb selection it should provide a worthwhile improvement. I don't personally like aftermarket HID lamps because of the wiring complexity and multiple points of failure. Hope that helps, and thanks for watching!

Can you explain me how to set the low light beam ? Hight or low?
Once you remove the two retaining bolts, reach up under the cluster and try to pull it out. It should pop right out.
I replaced the low beam bulb with a Philips H7 CrystalVision Ultra bulb and the light is a much brighter white.

I believe the high beam is an H7 also.
