Got a 600 bandit. Want to replace headlight bulb for a 90% brighter one. Checked owners manual and it doesn't say if I need h4 or h7 connection.

Can anybody help?

Thanks

Probably need to pull the existing bulb and take it from there.

My K6 Bandit S takes a pair of H7. Most naked Bandits will
take a H4.

Assuming your Bandit is a naked type with a single bulb
for low and high beam, it most likely needs a H4.

Check the back of the bulb. H7 has two connections, H4 has three.
