Just one bulb and ballast comes in the kit for motorcycles and they are very easy to install. If you can get your headlight assembly off you bike,it works the best. You install it and then it just plugs in to the original headlight plug. I was thinking of going up to 10,000 from 6000 because I want my light to be more "blue" now.

the higher the # (= more blue) the less light output
