Hi guys

Other than the Ba20d headlight bulb, high/low beam, there is no mention in the manual of the correct type of pilot bulb.

Does anyone know what bulb it's is ? Type, wattage, voltage and fitting? I'm in the uk btw

Thanks in advance!

Not sure what mean by pilot light. I can only think you are talking about the 2nd small bulb that is offset from the main bulb. Not sure why it is there, as in most countries the main headlight is always on as a DTRL. Not sure of the wattage, I'd have to go check, the voltage is 12v. The stock bulb is a filament bulb. The base is T-10. You can replace it with an LED. I have lots of colours of LED I can sell you cheap. White, blue, red, yellow or green. I also have nice projector style LED's too.

If my research is correct it is a 501 sidelight bulb(5w).

Small bulb just below the main headlamp?
Positive
