Changing bulbs in a Honda Deauville 2007 - difficult?

worded

Mates bikes - a bulb is gone.

If its easy I will do.

Alt I will ref to nearest moto shop !

What say you?

depends which bulbs.
rear are easy enough.
main front is hard enough but can be done.
the high beam, not a chance.
indicators at the front, i think can be done.

check youtube
there may be instruction videos

You will need nimble fingers to change the front head-light. But it's possible. First time took me about 20 minutes to get the angles, now it takes about 3-4 mins - but it's still a f**ker to change.

You must have tiny hands.

changing them on the 98 DV is bad enough, they made it impossible on the newer version, for no good reason. To change a headlight bulb on my cage, I don't even need a screwdriver. Its as if the motorcycle manufacturers deliberately make it user unfriendly to encourage you to go to the shop for even the most minor of jobs.
