I'm contemplating upping the wattage on my headlight globe, anyone know what stock is and how high I can go?

Noone?, guess i'll have to guinea pig it then

Having too high of a wattage and you could end up melting the plastic covers on high beam,

I think it has relevance in Australia, anyway, make up your own mind.

It might pay to install relays as well, one for each light is best IMO.

That's basically my main area of concern, on the C model I only have 1 headlight but it's IMO inadequate, but then I think most motorcycle headlights are ordinary to be honest...

Hmmm the headlights on the ZRX are pretty darn good.... would give a car a decent run for its money whack in the plus 50 bulbs and I have been pleasantly surprised!

Derr??? Why don't you just pull it out and look at it? It's a 2 minute job even a simpleton could complete!
