Headlight bulb upgrade!

[Watty]

Can anyone advise me what the largest wattage headlight bulb is I can run without any problems and major mods?

[Wicky]

Stick to H4 -60/55 W - unless you put a ceramic bulb holder in (to replace standard meltable OEM placcy/nylon one) / Eager Beaver Relay kit.

With all that don't push it with silly wattage bulbs as things can still melt!

no you will get condensation build up and it will ruin the lens (i know as it happened to me ) just used the normal buld and fit a relay kit . or fit a projector + HID kit

Careful if you have it on main beam too long…

I have a 55/100 with relay kit in mine, no problems with that as it is normal rated on dip beam

Is that with ceramic holder?

I'm running with a 100/55 so I have a better high beam when needed. Fitted 6 months ago, plugged straight in and no issues.

No, I bought the normal relay kit with plastic holder, I didn't spot the ceramic one back then when I did the conversion. No sign of problems on the connector last time I had the fairing off

Cheers lads a few options to think about there
