Ok, I have an 06 Street Glide. I want to change out just the bulb in the headlight. Does anyone know what the wattage is ?
Also will I have to buy a whole ne lamp as well? Harley says I need to or my charging system will or could get damaged?

There is a recent thread (last couple of days) on this page that talks about this.

Try using the search at th e bottom of the page.

It has bulb numbers and a lot of great information

Hello Wildwen

Here are a couple of threads that should help you out with a better bulb:

https://www.hdforums.com/m_1960996/tm.htm

As for having to change out your lamp assy. If you just want a better bulb no, get an upgraded H4, say the 65/70 watt Osram, your wiring and charging system will handle that easy. A LOT of people have done this!

Also, I belive you alreadyhave the better charging systemwith your 06. I seem to remember that HD went to a 42 amp (or 40 amp) charging system that year.
