[Honda-C70] Re: dratv Headlight Replaceable bulb unit - is it bright enough?

 


The replaceable bulb unit it fits in is a nice unit, and the bulb is adequate at night. It doesn't compare to a car headlight or larger motorcycle headlight. I've tried a bunch of different bulbs and haven't found any that are able to make it truly bright to the standards of the aforementioned larger headlights. But for the most part you will be able to see.
