Have the bike in a state of undress at the moment
Just doing a few little jobs.....fuel tank filter, coolant, oil change, Sena comms stuff etc.....
Got me thinking about the position lights......so now they are very easy to get at and I have the blue/white bulbs here in the shed, BUT read somewhere some time ago that due to the heat generated by the low beam being constantly on the aftermarket blue/white positioning bulbs don't last long........anyone read the same and where was it discussed ??
Another little issue to be aware of is when you pull the rubber housing that holds the positioning bulb out THERE IS A VERY GOOD CHANCE the bulb will fall into the headlight
Solution......grab a piece of wire (I used an old stainless 2-way aerial) fold a piece of insulation tape about 10cm long back on itself to form a loop of tape with the sticky side out and wrap around the tip of the wire, remove the headlight globe on that side and insert through the hole to retrieve the positioning bulb, saves pulling the lens out or the entire headlight off to shake the bulb out......just FYI
