can anyone offer any advice as to why my 99 sv650s produces such poor light? im sure iv got standard bulbs but comming into these lovely dark wet winter mornings/afternoons/evenings (take your pick) I can barely see a thing. specially when shootin down the m11 after getting up late for work! anyway, is there a cure for this or simply another type of bulb i can put in to improve it.

sorry to babel, please help

I have the same problem, waiting for Busters to ship my bulbs (Philips X-treme Power) which should have been here a week a go!

Easy to remove yes- carefully slide the black plastic things off the back of the bulbs, pull off the rubber ring, unclip the bulb and bob's yer.

You can get a twin pack at busters for £12 at the moment.

Couldn't believe that price, but lo and behold, that's what it says on the site. There again you're still waiting, .................hmmmmm.
If they arrive it's a bargain.
