Title: K-Pipe Replacement Head light Bulb That’s LED
Post by: Load97 on June 16, 2019, 04:15:11 PM

I’m trying to figure out the bulb that’s in the headlight. If anyone knows please post. If someone has a decent bulb part number that’s LED that will work as well. I didn’t see anything listed in the manual, but maybe I missed it.

I ordered up this one last night. I’ll give it a try. Guess the bulb is n HS1. I never heard of it before, but I don’t screw around with small bikes until now and once in the early 90’s.

Interested if it works without messing up the battery or electric system.
Would love to have a bright LED bulb.

The DZG H4/HS1 bulb only worked for the high beam. The low beam is an H8, which I didn't have. So I ordered one up last night that should be here Thursday. I did plug in the H4 bulb and then turned the key on. It worked. I then fired the bike up and let it idle and rev it a bit and the bulb didn't flicker in the 3-4 minutes I was doing it.

BEAMTECH H11 LED Headlight Bulb, 50W 6500K 8000Lumens Extremely Brigh H8 H9 CSP Chips Conversion Kit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XHDYTGL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_7OzdDb40Q2RQ2 (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XHDYTGL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_7OzdDb40Q2RQ2)

Used this for the low beam. I had to move the wiring harness over a little bit. Tight fit, but all went well. I do need to see if I can “clock” the bulb as the leds are up and down facing and probably should go from left to right. Did not get a chance to see the bulbs at night though.

The high beam bulb from the above post I had to use a uni-bit to open up the whole for the bulb to go through. Not a big deal at all.

So far with idling and a short ride no issues with the bulbs cutting out. The high beam light does make the lens feel warm though, but I’m thinking it should be good.

Bike really needs a different reflector housing. Checked the lighting tonight. Pretty sporadic but a bit better than the halogen. The Sachs madass has projectors, and I wonder if one could retrofit that on.
