KS311 LED spotlights
Kappa took the opportunity to present new accessories for 2025 at the Italian Motor Bike Expo , including the KS311 pair of auxiliary spotlights . They feature a shock-resistant chassis , a convenient coupling system to the motorcycle frame , and " top performance due a powerful degree of brightness ". They are CE certified and offer LED technology with a nominal output of 25W (+/ - 10 %) each ( a light output of up to 6,000 lumens with a radiation range of over 300 m ). The spotlights produce a rectangular tangent lighting effect , which does not dazzle oncoming drivers and minimises blind spots and dark areas through a wide beam . The lighting mode can be controlled with a threeposition control panel , which allows a choice between high beam , low beam and high beam with low beam . Additionally , they offer an IP67 degree of
protection ( dustproof and resistant to immersion in water up to 1 metre deep ). The spotlight is made of aluminium with a die-cast lamp body . The lens is made of optical glass , which eliminates the danger of discolouration and allows excellent penetration of the light beam . The KS311s are easily fixed to the motorcycle with the kit supplied that allows any 20 to 26 mm tube to be used as a mount . The bracket is rotatable and the two spotlights can be positioned in four ways , thanks to threaded connections at the bottom , top , right and left . They are supplied with two totally watertight battery connection cables , a control unit to be connected anywhere on the motorcycle ' s 12 V circuit that disconnects when the vehicle is switched off , and a handlebar-mounted control unit that controls the 3 lighting modes . The operating voltage is 12-24 V ; diameter is 56 mm ; length is 60 mm ; weight is approx . 1.5 kg . They are available in anodised black .
