I personally can't stand them. It's like someone driving around with their high beams on all the time.....................

its just annoying to other people, i don't think you would find them annoying if they were on your bike... when i ride i'm completely unconcious of other people's feelings, its MY rode and they are all out to murder me... I ride with my high beams on 24 hours a day unless i'm behind a friend... every once in a while i'll get a car flash their lights at me, but that actually makes me remember even better to keep my high beams on all day and night, it might piss them off but i'd rather have a cager be annoyed with me and know exactly where i am, than not annoyed with me and not even realize i'm there

so for that reason i'd very much like HID's, i just can't see on a bike where beng able to see an extra 200 feet into the woods when bambi is thinking of commiting suicide would be a bad thing

yeah kinda ironic that i say that. its annoying when i'm in my cage but not to the point that it bothers me that much. when i ride my bike my high beam is on 24/7 as well. hehe...i suppose it was a hypocritical statement.

Are you kidding me?

Even if I was using HID's if someone was passing me with them it would still annoy me!!!!

Yup. You are one of the many riders who cause cagers to hate us so much.
