Shakie, yes they will do. If you get the ones with holders, then make sure they are the correct holders. There are 2 kinds, i always get the worng ones. I now just by the capless bulbs and fit them in the holders. Dont go the LED route as there isnt an LED on the market that works better than a incandecent bulb. You get 'hotspots' and not enough spread of light.

As for fitting, i have only done it on a faired curvey which is NOT a 30 second job as you have to remove the entire front fairing, screen, wing mirrors, clocks etc etc
