I have questions on a couple of topics that I'm sure some of you have already investigated. 1) I recently have had a couple of near misses with some of the nearsighted motorists of the 4 wheeled variety. I have decided that when using the 'Big Green F#%*er' to get to and from work I must be more visible if I stand a chance of distracting them from their cell phones and palm pilots for just an instant while I am in there path. I have seen H4 headlamp bulbs offered much stronger than the OEM 60/ 55w. Other options are 100/55w, 100/80w, and 130/90w. These are also offered in "All Weather', Diamond Blue', 'White', 'Xenon', 'HIB Blue', 'Yellow', and 'Gold with an additional ion gas tube around the filament bulb'. What is the highest power bulb I can safely use and what color is the most visible in the day time but still good at night? I saw a rice rocket coming at me the other day with the most amazing yellow or gold headlamp I've ever seen. Does any one know what these are? Thanks in advance for the help. K.C. Y2KLR650 'Big Green F#%*er' 73 Yami RT3 360 'Little Thumper' I use the Sylvania 9003CB (stands for Cool Blue) bulb. It's the same wattage as the stocker so you don't have to worry about the electrical upgrades other high wattage bulbs might entail. I don't know for sure, but if the dirty looks I get from both pedestrians and cagers alike is any indication, this bulb is definitely brighter than stock. Of course my headlight is aimed just slightly higher than it probably should be, but it works! Picked up the bulb at Pep Boys for like $12.99 or so. dat brooklyn bum _______________________________________________________ Say Bye to Slow Internet! http://www.home.com/xinbox/signup.html
