Headlight Bulb Replacement? - 05s and up

[jdscott74]

Do the 05-07 Sprint STs use a standard type of headlight bulb? Can I buy one at any auto parts store?

Also, how hard is it to replace? I can't tell if I'll have to remove body panels or not. Hope not. :-D

I can't remember off the top of my head if it's an H4 or H7 bulb (it's printed on the headlight assembly glass, though). It's a simple replacement, and I had little trouble reaching the low-beam bulbs without removing anything from the bike. Or myself, for that matter. NTTAWWT.

Thanks so much Aske! I'll check it out and try to replace it myself then.

I pulled the bulb last night, and it's an H7, 55W.

The bulb is behind the circular rubber covers that sit below the dash, one on each side. After removing the cover there is a clip that you squeeze loose, and then the bulb can be removed from the wiring harness.

I'll try and get some pictures when I go to replace the bulb, for everyone's future reference.
