I got my bike back after a week for valve/belt/fork maintenance.
Anyhow, I start to ride and notice my high beam light stop working (low beam works). I think it might be burned.
What's brightest bulb I can get? Got to get one asap. Any suggestion appreciated.
(bike 620 Monster 2004 )

Many of us have run a 80/100 watt. The wiring is just good enough if everything is perfect. Check all connections, particularly the connector for the bulb. I ran an 80/100 for three or four years, ducpainter has run one longer. Do expect a shorter bulb life.

I think I have a PIAA extreme bright or some such name. Anyway it is 100/110, WAY more visible during the daytime for those cagers that keep trying to kill me.

just bought a 90/100w (store did not have 80/100w). Will see how it fares.
I got to switch to HID light at some point. I do lot of night riding and this lights are just not enough.
Thanks for your help.
