Re: h7 headlight bulbs?
My experience of LEDs was poor and I reverted to halogen. Relay makes a great difference.

Re: h7 headlight bulbs?
Just my experience , but there is a difference in quality . Replace a number of H7 bulbs on cars and find them returning with blown bulbs with in 12 months . Now prefer to fit the more expensive ones .Tramp wrote: ↑Mon Aug 26, 2019 1:18 pm Okay my xt660z headlight bulb went yesterday , ive fitted a spare car one but ...
Are the motorcycle vibration resistant ones from osram or philips any longer lasting...im not into superbright as i dont ride at night ....salisbury plain us rocky as hell at monent which wont help...
The bike ones are twice price of car ones ! See osram do a ultralife?
Opnions folks..
Just check your regulator isn't over charging and blowing bulbs .

Re: h7 headlight bulbs?
The H7 in the headlamp of my 800GS yesterday afternoon. Not the first time by any means.
So, in to the Pannier for the spare that we bought a few months ago in Victoria, Vancouver Island.......Bugger! It’s an H4.
My fault for not checking when it was handed to me I suppose.
We bought another one yesterday evening, just a generic one I think. Sylvian or something.
I’ll fit it later today.
