    The putz that wrote the manual never listed the replacement bulb types...they tell you the location and the wattage but not the industry standard number! Schumcks...trying to protect the dealer on something as chickens#%t as a two dollar bulb.

    Does anyone have a complete list? I'm going to write it right in the manual.

    If not, anyone know the number on the dual filament front turn/marker light...is it 7443?..no number on the old bulb.

    Headlight bulbs - H4
    Front Turn/Marker Lights - 7443
    Rear Turn Signal - 7443
    Rear Stop/Running Light - 7443
    Dash Lights - 194 Wedge style bulbs

    if you do ever forget or blow a bulb on the road, there is an embossed number on the rear of the light fixture for at least the front turn signals and tail lights. The lettering shows the 7443 number as well as the other information listed in the manual. Hope this helps.

    That info may be great for that specific run of bikes. Not valid for others. Case in point: The headlight bulbs for the 90-93 VFR according to Sylvania takes their H4 bulbs. These flatoot do not fit.

    The "Honda" types are made by Stanley and can be purchased at your friendly dealer for aboot 40 pesos a pop.

    Anybody that has more info on where these items are fewer pesos has my attention.

    The "ear" clipping on the standard bulbs is not real smart and the shims are just barely OK.
