How to change the bloody bulbs??????????

Post by moodyman »

I don't have a manual for the V-Raptor.

Therefore, can anybody shed any light on how to change the headlight and sidelight bulbs?

Surely your not supposed to squeeze your hand in to the small space to get to the headlight bulb?

Does the sidelight simply pull down from below?

All help appreciated

Changing Bulbs

Post by Miz »

Good News on the sidelight bulb, not so good on the headlight bulb. You can get to the sidelight bulb by removing the lower fairing... But you have to strip off top fairing and indicator pods, then you can remove the headlight and change the bulb... or get a little urchin with small hands (pick pocket style) to reach in and change the bulb for you.
