2002 Fazer 600 - LED Conversion?

[SB94]

I purchased a 2002 Yamaha Fazer 600 at the start of the year and have been really enjoying it (only passed DAS in Nov '19).

I have only ridden it in the dark on a handful of occasions and have found that the lights are OK, but I feel I could benefit from something brighter.

Would converting the headlamps to LED be of use? or is there another option I could look into?

LEDS are only good for bikes designed to have them.

Fit osram night breakers.

What is it with headlights on many new bikes being total crap? Form over function? The twin Halogen headlights on my Pan European are excellent, better than my car's headlights.

Yes you can fit direct replacement H4 LED bulbs.

Some are £2.99, others are £35+... Guess which you should use.

I have one of these and it's excellent. It did need to be "tuned" by rotating the bulb on its base with the light projecting onto a wall until it formed a proper beam pattern then locking it in place with a grub-screw.

The MOT tester commented on how crisp a beam pattern it had.

These are good ones because they have a very low profile heat-sink.

You will need to find room behind the fairing/clocks for the little box of electronic tricks. Just under the size of a deck of cards.
