Re: NC30 headlight bulbs!!??
Does one of theses bulbs fry the wiring or something? I've heard on it here the something like that?
I went to test them yesterday, so I just turned the ignition on to see and they worked, then I tried them again with just the ignition on and they didn't work!? Don't know if I've blown the bulbs from doing it in quick succession.
So where can I get some 60/35 bulbs from? And are they a H4? As mines a jap import

Re: NC30 headlight bulbs!!??
The Japanese market bikes use H4R bulbs, UK bikes use H4 bulbs. You can use H4 bulbs but you'll either have to modify the bulbs/housing or use adapter rings like these:-

You'll also have to perform the headlamp relay mod which is detailed in the document section:-

Re: NC30 headlight bulbs!!??
Right just been out to the bike to whip the bulbs out my left one had the proper 12v 60/35w bulb in and the right one had a 60/55w in, as some knob has put it in before and just bent the tab back!
So where can I find some 60/35 bulbs ideally?
