Default New R-420 30W/30W headlights inadequate, upgrades?

Hi,
I love the quad just want better lighting. I have talked to all our dealers in town and visited all the big auto stores and nothing comes up as an upgraded bulb.

I would settle for a single beam in a brighter configuration even.

I do have some auxilliary lights to put on but the factory bulbs would be much quicker and cleaner looking.


Any one looked into this also and found something?

First thing you need to do is find out what your stator will support. Most of the time, lighting upgrades are to much the stock system.....

These guys know their stuff. There were some slick double stack square lights on the Baja Honda Team bikes this year: http://www.bajadesigns.com/

It has a doosie in their; a 343-watt alternator. I could hook multiple aux. lights and a hand/thumb warmer and still be fine.

Can't you find an equvalant bulb in either a halogen or maybe even a white or blue halogen. I have switched my snowmobile to blue tip halogens and made a big difference.

So just find some bar mounted lights, that way the light beam turns with the bars. I would go with Bullets because they are small.
