Does anyone know of a cross reference bulb that I can pick up at an automotive store? I saw someone say that they paid $18 for a single new bulb, yamaha sells them for $9.99. I just thought someone might have purchased a bulb somewhere other than yamaha. I've also got condensation in the headlight assembly, I'm guessing that's what caused the bulb failure. Anybody know where the leak is? Thanks.

 

I disconnected my stock lights and got new 50W handlebar mounted lights with billet barclamp from Trail Tech I am very satisfied for $120

 

Try removing your bulb and cleaning the bulb and connection with some electrical cleaner. The assembly is'nt sealed, so corrosion and condensation is a problem. I would like to try some slightly more powerful bulbs......surely somebody has tried another more powerful bulb???[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

I'd have to agree Gary. I just haven't pulled the stock bulb out, its got to be a standard 12V bulb. I will pull it this evening and see if I can pick a replacement up at Napa or Autozone. I'll let you guys know, surely someone has already tried this?

 

check out this system HID

The HID system would be nice, I waste a lot of money, but 500 bones on a pair of headlights, come on!

 

HID try HIH (high intensity heat) seems like the plastic would melt.

 

I can vouch for KingRaptor. He has the suprastore HID's. I saw them. They are bright, and I am too cheap so I have two 50W lamps instead.

Waaasup!

 

That is why I said it seems like the plastic would melt. These may be the best light since a Mag, they do look good in the picture and from what you say they work great. So sorry for the comment. I did not know that I wasn't allowed to speak my mind.

 

The HID's run cooler because they draw less wattage. My 50W lamps get realy HOT realy quick. I don't like the stock raptor light reflector shape so I hope suprastore comes out with a new design.
