Title: Headlight Bulb Karked itself
Post by: Roshan on March 12, 2009, 09:39:47 PM
Title says all ^

Was wondering if anyone knew whether this would work for the normal head light bulb (high beam still works).

Thanks heaps

Roshan

P.s. any cheaper alternatives in Australia would also be appreciated!

the high beam and low beam are two filaments in the same bulb. if by low beam you're referring to the tiny running light then i get what you're sayin

Yeah any H4 bulb will work.


I really like the Philips Xtreme Power 80

Thanks for the reply guys. Headlight bulb is the least of my worries at the moment. Got into an accident. Cabbie decided to chuck a u turn without looking (across double white lines). Collided head on into the side of the cab. Not sure whether the frame is bent or whether the wheel is misaligned for some other reason. but while riding home timidly i had to constantly apply pressure to one side of the handlebars in order to go in a straight line. Taking the bike in tomorrow for a smash repair quote. Not badly injured so im thankful, just very sore and bruised.
