    Cheers folks, I've been looking for 45/45 bulbs and they seem to be like gold dust unless you buy from some Chinese company on eBay.
    Following the manufactures advice is the correct way to go, I agree.
    I'll keep hunting around and see if I can find any.

    Jon - what year is your sv, think after 03 they changed up to 60/55.

    cheers 919honda,

    think these are what i have in the bike.
    i'm still looking for some that maybe give out 80% more light or something like that.

    or i'll just stick with what i've got and not ride on the 419 or any other pitch black roads at night. lol

    Mines a K2 (2002). Some of the early ones (X or Y's) had single beam headlights. These can be told apart by the different pattterns between the left and right lenses. These have a terrible reputation, so were quickly changed to the twin dip/main units.
