It seems to work okay, though I have not ridden much at night yet as I am still trying to get the carbs runnig right on my bike. Don't cry because it's over, Smile because it happened.    Report

Whitney is where I got mine, it was less then 20 bucks (get 7 inch round) works great, much better then stock. You then can pick up H4 bulbs anywhere for replacement. http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/ItemBrowse/c-10111/s-10101/p-100000165788/mediaCode-ZX/appId-100000165788/Pr-p_CATENTRY_ID:100000165788 79 Cx500C 06 KZ 1600 Nomad    Report
