« on: August 22, 2012, 01:46:42 am »
Hi,

Im moving from england to france and need to change my headlamp to dip to the right, any advice on what lens i should use? Bike is a 400, needs to be for a h4 bulb, and european e marked. Can i just use a car type round lens?

Hi Ashley,

that's what I found:

A standard 50/65W H4 bulb might be too much for the alternator of your 400. You might want to look for lower wattage bulbs like

Thanks, didnt think to check europe ebays! I currently run 55/60w on my 400, had it for 2.5 years no problems.
