    Hey, one of my bulbs went, i got a replacement in halfords only to realise that it only has one point on the bottom not two. Looking online they mostly seem to be this kind. Any ideas where would be handy to get one? I and work near grand canal dock so close to there would be ideal, would a motorbike mechanic have them maybe?


    This is the bulb,

    Thats a 5w bulb.
    Any motor factors will sell them for about 50 cents each.
    JP Motorcycles beside the Bord Gais Energy Theatre will have them.

    If you need it today then the likes of Halfords or even Woodies,but you will get hammered on the price.:rolleyes:

    That's a stop/tail bulb. Is your indicator gone or tail light?

    It also looks like the type used in American bikes where the indicators stay on all the time.

    That link actually goes to a load of different bulbs but the one i took out looks very similar to that, its an 03 CBR, ill pop down to JP Motorcycles anyway, thats ideal. Thanks for the suggestions.

    JP Motorcycles,or any motor factors like Consort or PR Riely will sell you one on its own for 50 cents - 1 euro.

    JP might even throw you one for free.
