White headights -Halogen or LED options

[Mattdavies1982]

Hi, just wondering if anyone can give some advice. I want to change my headlamp bulbs to a white colour so they more closely matched to my LED fog lights. I was told that different colour lights can be a reason to fall an MOT or potentially get pulled over.

Has anyone changed their bulbs to a white colour and can you recommend a product

Any help much appreciated

Cheers

Matt

On all my bike I use OSRAM Nightbraker, but sure are nont like your LED.

I use LED headlight bulbs. I'm happy with them and the bike passed its MOT with them fitted. Nice white light and easy to fit.

Tallpaul,
what brand of bulb, is it with ventilator or just with those heat dissipating strips?
Could you close the headlight cover or had to leave it open after installing LED bulbs?
Do they last long, I mean, for how long do you have them installed?
I have Vee2 and trying to find good LED for a long time but my main concern is that I won't be able to put the dust cover back on or I'd have to open a hole in it for heat dissipating strips. I'm worried the dust would find its way into the headlight.
Thanks in advance.

Hopefully the above link should answer most of your questions. I also posted a comparison between the standard halogen vs LED vs HID but I'm struggling to track it down...
