K67 Headlights ppf (protection film)?

[Bo3liwe]

Hello
My bike is 2021 k67
I want to put ppf (xpel) on the headlight to protecting it from stone chips, Does it cause over heat to the headlight or cause cracks?

I?ve not had any problems and mines been on for over a year and almost 6k miles

I've read about it before, but in previous models. Maybe on 2018 models. It's causing acrack. But i don't know about the new gen4

I?ve a 2017 model and I had to remove it as it discoloured. No issue with overheating though.

Are the Gen 4 lights LED, entirely? No Halogen?

If so, they should be cool enough to not be troubled by film over them.

Halogen would probably be too hot.

As far as I know. Gen4 all lights is LED. Is that's true?

I have PPF on mine, no problems

Slight hijack of this thread however has anyone heard of ppf that include the indicator lenses for gen 4? They're obviously now vulnerable considering their position.

From the xpel.com website they don't seem to do any for the S1000RR. Do you have a link?

Thanks but the r&g cutout map doesn't cover the indicator lenses and the xpel still doesn't list s1000rr as an option. The link appears to be a generic headlamp + indicator kit, perhaps not precut to what's required?

If you do buy a kit from him and you have removed the front mud guard side reflectors let him know so he gives the correct kit, that also depends if it?s painted

Thanks, that's a good point. Tbh I didn't know they came off but if you can I will. How are they fixed?
