Bulbs

Get Nightbreakers, they promise to provide up to 140% more light without increasing current flow - ie they are the std. wattage.

 

I saw a new street twin today with what looked like a triumph led bulb in it. I haven't investigated but there should be a good chance these can be used in any headlight bowl. Could be a ballast or something involved?

Where do you get these Nightbreaker s ??

 

Halfords etc. They're readily available. Several makes too. They claim 120% more light etc. Straight fit for a std H4 bulb with no wiring mods etc. Mine are Phillips version if I remember correctly.

 

Here's some examples:

I got mine from http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk They offer all kinds of bulbs on there.
I think LED is the future and I need to look into it when I've got nothing better to do.
I also changed the triumph lenses for Cibie's as the lens and reflector makes a massive difference to the quality of the beam and spread of light.
It is also possible to wire headlights so the dip stays on when the main beam is on.
I haven't done this on the Speed Triple but I have on the T110 and it makes a huge difference.
