Headlight!

The headlight on my 1975 Z1-B is not very bright. I have checked Battery, charging system, connectors etc. etc. Bike starts and runs good, Simple question....will an aftermarket Halogen bulb fit my bike? I am hearing from lots of people this is a very common problem and that a Wagner H6024 will fit the bike and cure the problem! Thoughts?
Anyone use a different bulb with success?

I've used a variety of different halogen lights over the past 34 years including an expensive Marchal H4, 100w offroad H4 bulbs, Sylvania sealed beam, etc. I found that Wagner provides excellent lighting, doesn't put an excessive load on the electrical system, is very affordable, and is robust enough to outlast the others I have tried. I even bought a spare to keep in my parts box in case Wagner ever stops making them. Below is a link so you can see pricing. Ed

not sure about yours, but when my headlight was dim it ended up being a blown out bulb.

Strike a match to see if it's lit. :lol:

Hello Patton,
match suggesstion gave me an idea....
Well.............or double check the wiring again to make sure the lead for the high beam isn't connected to the ground!! :silly:
Not that that could happen?? SIGH!!
Sigh!!
Bulb is brighter now. :woohoo: ..... but may still go with a Halogen!
