Just wondering what headlight bulbs people are using these days? I suppose its the same for cars but wanting these for the bike. Something nice and bright and white, nothing blue! H4. I searched and only got some old results.
all good and white. the little blue strip is cosmetic, maybe for identification.
previous i had crap LED.
before that full blue chinese lens bulbs and they were pure white too. .
a mate had osrams and they said 55/65 w and they melted the terminals, so when he got the spark in work to test them, they were drawing 90w, (how they made them brighter) but the bike couldnt handle the drain and it was a dull beam, with shadows.he changer to GE too, says theyre the best so far.
never had issues with osram night breakers and current draw. .. i used to do the occasional hid kit upgrade but they are now an mot fail from next year... shame as when fitted to the right type headlight the beam was so much better in every way and didnt cause issues for oncoming vehicles.
Factory bulbs are just basic low cost items and never the best available.
Only potential downside is bulb life. often shorter with upgrade bulbs
they already are a MOT failure from a few months ago, my mate insisted i run his bike up with his LEDs in and the examiner was a cheeky sod 'caus he sees me in' and asked was i trying to be a sm4rtee asze for chancing it, and he failed it. a sign is going up at the door,, # i MOT it to pass, not to be made a dik of #
