Lawman Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Just spoke to Cycle Gadgets and he could not tell me if Kisan is making a headlight modulator for the 05 R1200RT. Anyone know? If so, how difficult is the install? Link to comment
SkidMark Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 I don't have one personaly because...now this is hearsay but, I heard that those modulators shorten the life of the bulb. So what I did instead was installed an H7 Yellow on one side of the lowbeams and I have noticed that I get noticed more often now. BTW, Lawmen are close enough to military to me, which makes you one of my HERO's Thanks man!!! Link to comment
Beemeroil Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Actually the modulator may extend the life of the bulb. More cycles but less time the wire is heated. Link to comment
Jon_M Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Kisan Pathblazer P115W-H3 is the one you want for the R12RT Link to comment
Ken H. Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 What Jon said. I have that one on my R1200GS with no issues. Be aware thought that it is splice in, so a bit of work is needed. Link to comment

Yes, modulators don't actually turn the bulb on and off. They just dim it some for a brief moment. So there is no real thermal shock like when turning a cold bulb on. Link to comment
