G'day All, back in march I installed a dimmer switch in my ZX50 and at the same time I fitted a halogen globe, No. BA20D is a straight swap from the original globe. Because I was busy with other mods at the time I didn't really pay much attention to the light. Well about a month or so ago the low beam died when i was going to work, being a new globe I thought it was probably a wire connector came apart so I didn't bother too much about it. Yesterday I opened it up to find it was not a bad connector but that the globe had blown. Now, I don't know wether the globe had been knocked before I bought it and it was a matter of time or if the vibrations of the 2~stroke engine is too much for it along with all the bumps in the road. Does anyone have any ideas on this? Is it better to stay with the original globe.
When i put the original globe back in I think it gives better light. Since I already have a new halogen globe on order I will try that and see how it compares.
