1986 Honda Rebel Headlight Bulb....
Posted: Fri Sep 23, 2005 12:08 pm
It's the factory 35watt sealed-beam headlight bulb. I'd like to get a spare just to keep around for quick replacement if necessary.
The only Honda dealer around does not have them in stock, but will be glad to order me a new bulb for *ONLY $80*. I thought he was joking at first, but he offered no other options, and I passed.
I tried a $15 aftermarket H4 Halogen bulb with a reflector and lens that supposedly fits my bike (just over 5"), but it was about 1/8" too big to fit the factory housing so I returned it.
Suggestions? Thanks in advance, my first post here.
