Headlight bulbs

(1/2) > >>

Waggles:
I have a standard headlight and the bulb just blew ( and its only 36 years old, rubbish I call it  ;) ) strangely I have another 70's one I can replace it with for now but don't expect that to last long either.

What does everyone else use and where do you get them? I am not after upping wattage, standard will be fine as I won't be doing any dark country lanes and I ride on dipped beam all the time. Haven't actually seem the standard bulbs anywhere so do you have to switch to H4 Halogen?

Bryanj:
You should still be able to get  bulb from any Motorcycle shop,  it was a standard fitting used not just on Honda's and was available in 6 and 12 volt(Don't get the wrong one----yes it will be bright but only for 2 seconds!!)

Spitfire:
Think mine came from David Silvers, not sure though

Cheers

Dennis

Bryanj:
Update:- had my running 500 MOT'd Saturday---yes of course it passed(I'd be in deepest do-do if i had one fail!) and asked at the dealers i used and he said got 'em on the shelf as they fit lots of bikes

Waggles:
Thanks Bryan.

Most of the dealers near to me only have brand new bikes 'on the shelf' so to speak and look at you with a worried expression if you imply you are going to actually touch your bike yourself!  :o thankfully there is one 'proper' old fashioned bike shop in Southend, I will pop in there when I get a chance.
