Hoped someone could save me a bit of time please.
I am off on a Euro trip next Month and need to carry spare fuses and bulbs for my 900
Could anyone please tell me in a nutshell what I should carry in terms of fuses (spade or cylinder, ratings etc) and headlight
bulb (fitment) ?
Many thanks in advance

Cats, will any H7 bulb fit, or does it need to be a specific type please?
Many thanks

I'm pretty sure any H7 bulb will do, it's just the brightness and colour which varies. Lot of people on here recommend Osram Nightbreakers. I'm planning to try some when it starts getting darker again.

Dave. The H7 IS the type. I know for a fact you're not blonde, unless you've been at the peroxide bottle.

Famous for it !!Isn't it a legal requirment though to carry spare bulbs on the continent ?
Cheers Dave
Hi Andy
I was thinking H7 was the size (fitting) rather than the type, for instance you could probably get size 12 stilettos, but they wouldn't be much good for playing football ?
Blonder than I was Mate, or is it grey !!
I think the last time I used a spare bulb was in your indicator in a pub car park in Avebury

Fiasco - Yes Dave, the TDM still bears the scratches from that little incident - and I don't think I've taken the luggage pillion since!

Agreed so I went for an LED unit.

Am I missing something, I just checked on their site and they show them at £19.19 delivered (pair of H7)?
UPDATE: Just realised this is the Powerbulbs EBay shop price, not their website where I looked, now ordered at £13.75 too.
