Headlight adjustment and superstars

[davsbusa]

Took a night ride about 2 days after purchase of the Busa and was very disappointed. The headlights did not reach out very far at all. I decided to adjust and replace at the same time.
Bought the Sylvania bulbs and adjusted them up a bit, it was a pain in the ass to get to the low beam, the hight beam was very easy. The results were great, I can ride with just the low beam now. Reaches way out there, felt safe at 80mph. This is a must do if you will ever ride at night.

If you like a new bulb, you'd love HID. It is BRIGHT!

It's a highly recommended mod in my book. I just did it, and I wish I would have done it years ago.

yes but some cant afford such great things...i'm thinking about buying these silverstars too but i have to find out the part number first...

some had issues with changing the stock bulb to aftermarket , housing melted i belive , not sure which bulbs it was ?

I had melting problems with PIAAs. The plastic adapter between the bulb and the wiring harness plug melted and my low beam began to go off and on while I was riding. I replaced the adapter and installed SilverStars over a year ago with no problems.

Next stop - HID!

I went to Advance Auto and they actually had a cross reference book, worked perfectly.

Absolutly love the Sylvania light. The low beam is H7 and the high beam is 9005ST (angle connector). That and you have to adjust the headlight to be effective.
