    if your wanting brighter headlights you can get bulbs that are supposedly for offroad use only. There 100 w or 130 w ring sportz, ive got them on my vtr and havent had any problems with them being illegal

    I got them, similar to the Sportz blue you can get from Halfords etc, but they say they're road legal, so if ya get pulled for em, you can show the pack and be fine.
