TYPES OF BULBS

The bulbs used on this motorcycle are shown

detached before removing the bulb. The
majority of these types of bulbs can be
removed from their respective socket by
turning them counterclockwise.
• Bulb C is used for turn signal and tail/brake
lights and can be removed from the socket
by pushing and turning the bulb counter-
clockwise.
• Bulbs D and E are used for meter and indi-
cator lights and can be removed from their
respective socket by carefully pulling them
out.
