So I've got one of those streetfighter headlights on my F4i and one of the two bulbs blew out.
I went to replace it and I noticed the ones in there (which sucked for night riding) were 20W.
SO i replaced both of them with 50W bulbs, one flood and one spotlight to see which one I like better.......
Seems brighter, my main concern is all the extra heat generated
by the higher wattage bulbs.
Anyone have experience with doing this??? I havn't had it on long enough to tell but I'm worried I might melt the headlight housing, fry some wires, or start a fire...
