Hi,
    I have found several sources now for the bulbs, or is it lamps? but what concerns me is not a slightly bigger wattage but the physical size of the things, the modern equivalents are longer than the original honda (toshiba) ones.

A slightly bigger wattage can cause some overheating problems.
The bulbs from DSS are the right ones and perfect for your speedo

Hi Lecram,
                    It looks as though D Silver it is, but it does hurt when the later longer versions of the BA9S lamp are 10 for £3 including postage-thanks

I bought these. Cheap and no probles at all.

Bulb code is BA9S

Hi Lynx,
              Sorry to say I have 10 of those in a box, I found that when fitted in the holders, the total length was equal to the depth of hole in the speedo/rev. counter, and the tips were just touching a green plastic? surface inside, so was not prepared to risk some "singeing" but thanks anyway. ended up with DSilver ones, two off came in a 50mm by 450mm by 150mm box of stuffing, but at least they didn't rattle their way here!
