Hi Mark, here's some answers. I've also copied the list in, I have a feeling
more people want to know about this.

Nope. Hey, it's difficult enough to find a Euro GTS, let alone a US-spec
one!  ;-)
I _can_ say the output looks quite good to me, but many other Euro owners
can share their views.


> Is the lens the same?

Can't say for sure, but I think it is. I have no access to a part numbering
microfiche with that info. :-(

Right one (from rider's position) is high-beam only. Manual specifies the
following:
12v 60W/55Wx1 and 55Wx1 (Except for A, CH)
12v 60W/55Wx1 (For A, CH)

As I understand it, this means there is a model with a 60/55 and a 55 for
all countries except two (I'm fairly sure CH is the code for Switzerland,
don't know about "A", but it is not "America"). These other two countries
get a single-bulb rig.

Can't help you with the feasibility of that - the Spanish DOT is very picky
about individual modifications to a vehicle, so the custom market for this
kind of materials (inpected every two years on all bikes) is verging on
nonexistant. :-(

Roberto.
