Title: Where to get rear reflectors and indicator bulbs?
Post by: PachmanP on November 12, 2008, 07:30:11 PM
Lemme start off by saying hi.  Got an 04 a few weeks ago, and finally got a question some good ol' searching doesn't seem to help.

I failed the state (MD) inspection today.  I need new brake pads, rear rotor, rear side reflectors and have bum high beam indicator.  I think I'll end up getting the EBC rotor and pads at kneedraggers.com as they seem to have the best price after a little looking, but I can't seem to find reflectors and bulbs.

I think the high beam indicator is just a burnt out bulb which is easy enough to fix, but I haven't seen where I can get it.  Ditto for the reflectors.  Does anybody know the part numbers or whatever so I can track them down?  Thanks!

bikebandit.com has all the OEM parts and very nice schematics.

not cheap but you can  find every nut and bolt and they  ship quick.

Pm  me, I've got a bunch of reflectors you can have for the cost of shipping.

You will have to get the whole headlight bulb to fix the high beams or low beams. The good news is you can pick up one at Wal-mart or any parts store. It is the H4 bulb. Make sure when you are changing it to watch that little metal holder and the little screw will fall into the depths of the headlight canal if not very careful ( don't ask me how I know! :o)

Hope this helps !

The high beam and low beam work just fine, but the little light on the dash that says the high beam is on.  And I dug through the fiches (sp?) on bikebandit and found the bulbs and reflectors (speedo and brake light assemblies if anyone else comes looking).

Thanks all.
