Title: Reliability Issue
Post by: Brother Number One on May 16, 2006, 08:33:22 PM
My headlamp bulb has blown.  Left side, just the dip.  I shall source the parts locally and do the work myself.



Later

Bloody hell  :shock:



6 bolts, indicator hangers

4 bolts, screen

4 bolts, fairing!

3 bolts, lamps mount



Just to get to the bulbs!  Am I missing something?  Bulb was 1.50 Pounds so I put two in.  I have now noticed that one of the tails has blown, too.  We have been bouncing around a bit, lately.























Do check the Morocco report update and give us some feedback.

Be cool,

Dave

I assumed that was why we had two so we could wait till we felt like fixing it. :wink:

Earlier threads on this but:

1) Install second relay. Wiring all there already. Just plug it in. Results in BOTH lamps for low/high beam.

2) I replaced bulbs with Philips "Blue Vision" H4.  Much brighter.

What am I missing here???? I can't think of another motorcycle with a brighter headlight......OK I'm comparing only to the ones I've owned, but the only one that comes remotely close in brightness was my old GL1100.



I guess I'm still just totally impressed with this bike.......

UK is 2 up 2 down as standard.  Mine is, at least, but I bought it private.  It's an 04.  :D
