Default Osram Night Breaker +90%

Hi All.

I have just fitted some of these to my SV K3 S model. I will post an update about there performance and if I blind people or not.

The bulbs I took out looked like standard Osrams 60/55W grey top clear glass.

Tim.

I just bought a set of these myself, since one of my silverstars blew a filament... The hype's good, wonder how they'll work out...

Hi.

These are much brighter than standard bulbs. The colour is very white with a very slight blue tint. They light up the road on dark country lanes really well. My beams were set very low so I have raised them up and have not had anybody flash me so far.

These are much much better than standard bulbs. I recommend them.

£20 off ebay.

Tim.

Thumbs up Re: Osram Night Breaker +90%

Severall evenings of riding now and still no flashes to say I am blinding people.

I can't say how these compare with the Osram Silverstars recommended on this sight, but I am finding the ride on country lanes much easier as a result of fitting them.

Tim.
