|

Looking to try and get brighter lights for my CBR 600 FY, like the BMW style lights. Don't know much about the lights etc was wondering if it was possible any decent sites.
Thanks in advance. ____________________ Current: 2019 Yamaha T7 -> 2015 KTM Superduke R | 2000 Yamaha R1 Past -> 2009 KTM 990 SM -> 2005 kawasaki ZX10r -> 2000 Honda CBR 600 FY -> 2002 Honda XLV 125 Varadero

Wrote up a recent thread about something like this any may people recommended phillips blue vision or philips vision plus bulbs for that blueish kinda tint, not an exact blue, but close enough. ____________________ The Tot 2007 Yamaha R1 4C8 2002 Yamaha FZS1000 Fazer &

Before you buy new headlights, try this https://www.easternbeaver.com/Home/Main/Products/H4_kits/h4_kits.html. It cost me £28, including delivery. Most japanese bike's headlight power supply passes through the switches on the handlebars, and there can be a voltage drop of more than 1.5V because of this. With the relays and heavy duty wires, you get better power delivery to the bulb, and if you upgrade to a more powerful bulb, the relay / wires will prevent your electrics from getting fried up by the extra current drawn. You can revert back to original by simply unplugging it. Works a treat! It also gives you fexibility regarding choice of bulbs. A twin headlamp version is available. Despatch is very prompt. It was a pleasure doing business with the beaver . |

try this one as well https://www.autobulbsdirect.com
i got some cheap ones from them, £4.99 for a pair of H4s. they appear bluer/whiter than the philips one, which i had bought before, and is now lying around as a spare
they also do the HID kits. if your bike has one main light on, then its worth considering for the kit at around £130. i guess the kit should be worth it as you will stand out more (with the 8500k version). |

stick an 80/85w bulb in. makes a huge difference.
My yzf has 2 30/35w bulbs, I swapped em for 55/60's.
big improvement & no problems so far after 11 years. |
