I read manual from first to last page and all i could find is that bulb is 12V 5W. serched forum but couldn't find nothing illustrated Could anyone provide me a picture of bulb, so i don't have to take front light off bike - take bulb out - drive bike like that all around city until i find it... ? links to web shops also welcomed what i found on google is this: http://www.gamestone.co.uk/bike/bike...s_lighting.php - is this same type of bulb that XTX use ? thanks

Yea those are the ones, but just make sure they are the correct size (cant remember what they are called) but if they are for a bike im pretty sure they would be the same. Had to replace mine about a year ago as it blow, went to my local garage (does mainly cars) and it was this type i needed but he had a load of different sizes like this. The car types have a metal end and will not fit (yes i tried)

The end of the bulb is not plastic, the glass of the bulb just flattens, and the two metal wires fold over the end....
I think :-P

hi, the automotive bulb type is known as a '501' 12v/5w capless, so a search for a '501 led' on the likes of ebay should do the trick.
i did mine on the tenere, far better job! nice crisp and bright. complements the 35w hid dip beam just nicely! |
