Most bike headlight bulbs are auto parts mounted in custom housings, and replacements can be bought off the shelf at AutoZone or Poopboys. My light I've run for the last 25 years is like that.In fact, some of the original custom chopper headlights were bolted up right off old antique cars like the old bullet light Chevy's and Model A Ford's.
All electrics, both Bike and auto nowadays are ALL 12 volt systems.

Well you just have to make sure of the Hi-Lo wiring, but the bike is 12 volt right! the car is 12 Volt. Shouldn't be a problem.Are you addicted to ANSWERS ? motorcycles?
And if they dont Quite fit, I always found duct tape works great
Remember: spare the duct tape spoil the job...
Can you restrict a honda vfr 400 to a 125?
it will work ,BUT motorcycle lens are focused differently than cars - because cars have at least two headlightsI need help i have only 60 dollars?
same voltage...probably not the same wire connection terminalYou can't use it because that was specifically made for a car, not a bike.
You should use the headlight designed for the bike. the lenses are different for bikes - and the hi/lo setting is different because they are installed much higher than auto head lights.

In theory yes,if your motorcycle uses a 12 vold system and you wire the light on right, alot of bike use 6 volt system and the light wont work.I have a 82 Honda CM450A. After hauling it home the lights/guages don't work.?
The problem will be in the bucket. The clamping system to hold the bulb is different. Still works though. Did the same on my old Suzuki. I preferred the wide, flat beam of the auto bulb over the narrower motorcycle bulb. $4.99 for something I liked and that lasted, or $29.99 for what wouldn't last a week. Tough choice. Hot melt glue took care of the mounting problem.More Questions & Answers ...
