They're much brighter than the stock and I have no complaints. They aren't
HID, you can get a conversion kit on eBay for about $20 to $50, but I don't
need it that bright. Search for "nighthawk 750 super white" and you'll get
Javier, the parts fiche says it takes an H4 bulb, so any replacement bulb
listed as an H4, HB2, or 9003 will work. Just keep in mind that the
brighter bulbs have a shorter lifespan. Like the silverstar bulbs last
about 1/3 the length of a standard bulb.

Before I mentioned I was having an issue with my headlight. I lost the low
beam. I was convinced it was something wrong with the wires, because I
switched them and got low beam and no high beam. Anyway, I checked again,
with more care, and I got power in both wires at the headlight. I took the

Collective mistake making and head scratching is what makes this whole

Actually since it seems to be a recurring problem, I would clean the
contacts in the starter button, as well as the Hi/Low switch and check the
connector on the Blue/White wire that goes between the control pods.
Possibly someone used it as a tap wire for a farkel. Other than a bad left

In the past, on my '93, a headlight out on both high and low beam settings
was a result of starter switch corrosion. That switch breaks contact for
that circuit when engaged, to reduce the load on the battery during
starting. However, if you have voltage at the headlight switch supply
without the l
Ok I got a chance to look at the wiring diagram. This is a basic circuit.
Power comes out of the fuse box over a Black/Red wire to the right hand
pod. It then goes through the starter button which makes it an open circuit
when pressed. Power comes ou5 of the right pod over a Blue/White wire to

Of course I checked the fuses first thing and all were good, so I moved on
from that. But the headlight does have its own fuse according to the wiring
diagram, and if the connectors to the fuse got touchy, that would do it.
I'll check that, and thanks! (Fuses are under the seat on 90's models.)

I am interested in seeing what you find. I think I have the same issue with

I only have low beam now, but it is due to inspection soon, so I need to
