    Most bike's use T10 and T5 wedge incandescant bulb's, you can replace them with brighter Led's, they draw less power and last longer too

    I have just fitted some of these to my bike, the blue wasn't bright enough in the end so i went with the whites
    My led's cost around $2 for 10 led's inc postage off ebay

    ZXRs have t5 size, tried a few they didnt work that good, green & white no good, you need an orange light for it to work properly, maybe diffrrent globes might of worked but they werent bright enough. I ended up just getting new 2w globes. 2 in the speedo & tach each, 1 in the temp guage & 4 in neutral oil blinkers etcso 9 all up

    They dont work at all in the neutrsl/oil lights etc because its coloured plastic lenses, I put white in the blue high beam & it looked green, blinkers looked yellow instead of orange etc if you got a red/orange/blue & green for each light it works ok, I actually got a green led in the neutral light and its so eye piercingly bright its coming back out haha
