Took the opportunity today because of foul weather to replace the H4 bulb in the headlight of my bike. I have replaced it with an LED from China (I know, but Cyclemax did not have any that fit in stock). The headlight came in quick order and the only thing mssing were instructions, but there seems to be only one way to install.
The first group of pictures are of the box and contents:
The box is quite compact and details contents
Contents of the box, several attachments - choose the one that fits/works
LED Specs - low beam 20W - High 30W - 3000 lumens
LED bulb - it is a triangular LED bulb
This picture shows the original headlight and the brightness compared to the LED driving lights:
There is a difference in the light intensity between the headlight and driving lights. The headlight seems less intense and actually has an orange tinge to it.
Now for the install. I did read the OEM service manual, but it does not cover everything. Went slow and all worked out fine.
Start of LED light install.
First item(s) to be removed are the side mirrors so that the upper trim can be removed.
The upper bolt of each side mirror secures the upper front trim in place. Use phillips screwdriver or 10 mm socket to remove the side mirrors. The side mirror securing bolts are different lengths so pay attention to which goes where.
The upper trim piece can now be removed by gently prying the trim piece upwards using the headlight as the fulcrum.
This picture shows how the upper trim piece fits into the trim holder that also secures the top of the headlight. Two 10 mm head bolts hold the headlight in place - remove.
