Good morning from Norfolk, UK - new CrossTourer rider here!

[splodger283]

Just awaiting delivery of my low mileage 2015 CT DCT - replacing much loved Z1000SX (swapping due to gouty big toe). Looking forward to the V4!!

You’ll love it! (If you don’t then there’s something wrong with you! )
Perhaps meet up sometime.

Thanks! Mine has the OEM fog/spotlights but I may look to do something with dip/main beams - I've got used to the LEDs on the Ninja and they are outstanding.

Hi and welcome.

If you find you want to try a genuine low seat once you get your bike there's one for sale near Kings Lynn in the "For Sale" section.

Hi and welcome splodger283.
I have fitted the Osram H7 LED HL next generation bulbs to the CT, A good improvement but the price is excessive, but compared to fitting extra spots and brackets and wiring, I suppose it makes sense.

Cheers
Tom

Welcome Splodger!

I plan to go LED too, but for now I have Osram Night Breaker Lasers in. They seem pretty good, and much whiter than yer average halogen.

How easy / difficult is that to do Tom? Are you able to provide a diy guide and where did you get the components from please?

Cheers.

I'm surprised to see that the Osram LEDriving HL (Next Generation) H7 bulbs "are not ECE-approved and must not be used on public roads in any exterior application".

Then again, swap 'em out at MOT time for some halogens and I'm sure nobody will check in between.
