Hello everyone. Its a sad day here in Calgary... our first snowfall of the year.
I finished building my XS400 a few months ago and ever since Ive got it out riding I keep burning out headlight bulbs. The headlight is aftermarket. Consistantly with all the bulbs when I run the lowbeam it will burn out in a matter of about an hour of riding so I will flick the highbeam on and that will last longer at about 4 hours of running time.
I checked the voltage at the battery and at idle it was around 13 and when I brought the rpm's up the voltage climbed to about 14.... is this normal or could this be the problem, any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
cheers,
Peter
