I there an wattage upgrade available for the SV650S?

I do not want to go to HID or to driving lights. At present my SVS has 2 x 12v 60/55 H4.

Is there say a 75/65 or similar or even higher in H4 or super white that can be safely used?

If yes, has anyone got a specific brand/part # that they recommend.

Just as a point of interest, I use to run on my BMW a Marshal Amplux with 55w low and 155w high (55w low and 100w hi came on together) plus a Cibie Oscar 8" 100w long range and Cibie Oscar 8" 100w wide, both activated by a seperate relayed switch for high speed (ton plus) night touring. That extent is not required on my SVS and I am sure the alternator could not handle it anyway. Everyone use to tell me they knew where I had been because the rabbits and 'roos had their fur burnt off It was also very effective for getting cagers to dim their brights.

Thanks

Why not install headlight relays with power straight from the battery? it makes the 55/60 headlights bright white. Just Google headlight relay kit. There are several people that sell kits or make your own.

Most parts shops sell a 55/100 bulb, the bike will handle the 100W without a problem, assuming you don't have other auxiliary power drain (GPS, heated gear, etc).
The generic high-output bulbs are inexpensive.
