Hi,

Thanks, I understand your explanation, I didn't realize that there where more purists around. Lately the posts are more focused to "upgrade" the bikes with LED's Xenon, and others.

You could have searched here for 'brighter headlight' but, as it's quicker to do than explain, I've done it for you! Sigh......

Now that's what I'm talking about---- ask a question and get an answer from someone who knows their stuff and is willing to do the work for me...... you're the greatest!! ( actually I spent an evening on this forum searching for the answers to my dilemma of poor lighting, gave myself a headache and out of frustration and desperation I asked the question and got a very excellent answer!-- never saw your post of 11/13/2010) Since you've already done it and seem to be pleased with the results with the 35/35w PMV halogen I'll take your suggestion and order the goods. Thanks, will report back with results. (First time I've been Sighed...... at by someone who wasn't female-makes me giddy!)

LMFAO! All posted with joviality and lemmeprodyouwithmypointystick intentions!

And you obviously brought my feminine side to the (sigh....) surface!!

Glad the info was of use. The solution's worked well; and very much to my (and Vince's) liking(s).

G'luck.
