Hey everyone,
I'm looking to replace the halogen bulb in my fz6n with a dual high/low beam LED, just straight conversion, but wanted to ask about it's feasibility. I've found this bulb but am a bit worried about its 50watt draw and whether it actually fit into the bike. By my own looks it SHOULD fit but just wanted a second opinion before a broke college student wastes 100 bucks.
My reasoning is simply that I want to be able to see more, I drive mostly at night and in forest areas where I live, so just further, wider and brighter (/ whiter) coverage is what I want.
Cheers in advance

I agree with Clif 100%. Plug-n-play LEDs are much brighter then a typical H4, but the beam pattern is usually wrong. As a result the area immediately ahead of the bike is flush in white light, but you won't be able to see down the road. I have a friend that bought about 15 H4 LED lights for the purpose of testing, and he didn't find one that would out perform a Sylvania H4 beyond 25 feet.
