original headlight 6v 20/20 watt, around $60 new from yamaha
i have four headlights that are dead. i cut the very back end of bulbs off and removed the insides of the bulb.
i read around the forums and i'm going to try a couple different conversions.
the bulb i really want to find is one of these http://shop.wemoto.com/pictures.dyn?k=HL-770422/10
but i can't find one in the states.
i found one of these https://www.lightbulbemporium.com/eiko_ ... a_3625.asp
but i can't find a base socket for it.
there is all kinds of different 6v. LEDs from http://www.superbrightleds.com/led_prods.htm
theres a lot of choices, anyone have any input on which one would be the best for my application?
i've also been thinking about just adding another small 12v battery to the back and just run all the lights including the headlight off 12v. i would just have to make sure i trickle charge the 12v when its not in use.
last question, but a good one. tell me there is some sort of device out there that you can splice in the loom to keep the brightness of the headlight consistent? i notice it more on the 79 than the later models.
if anyone else has any idea but hasn't tried, let me know, i'll try it for you.
