LOOK DIFFERENT & BE SEEN
These new yellow H4 headlights are specifically designed to make motorcycles more visable. Most cars either have 'Daytime running lights' or run with their headlights on even in good visability, so so just riding with your headlight on is often not enough. A yellow headlight will make your bike stick out in a sea of white lights. |
Because it is different, motorists will notice it and you will be seen. Yellow headlight are 100% road legal so MOTs aren't a problem. These are modern Quartz Halogen bulbs that give a longer beam & the manufacturers claim 100% more light than from a std. QH bulb, particularly if yours is getting old. |
Pt.no. B1260H4YEL. £9.95 each. |
Try one, you really will notice the difference. I saw on the first ride after I fitted one, car drivers waiting to come onto a roundabout staring at me. They didn't do that before & they'd obviously seen me. I've fitted one to both my alternator bikes. |

On older British bikes where the pilot bulb turns off when the headlight is on, 23W is best. Very bright, you can even ride with it if your headlight fails! An all metal bulbholder is recommended such as Pt.no. HL13124 £12.95 For bikes where the pilot bulb stays on when the headlight is lit (Commandos, late Bonnies etc.)10W is the maximum due to heat |
