While I don't commute on this bike, there has been the odd time out that I was out after sundown. Let's just say I have seen candles with more luminescence that this excuse for a stock headlight bulb. Technically, it is known in the industry as an H4 bulb. But what if we could stuff an LED housing in it? Well you can...with lot's of patience. First remove the old housing. Then you will need to remove the brackets to slot them and move them out. The rider's left side you can access all the screws without needing any further assembly. But the to get to the top screw on the rider's right side you will need to remove the rear panel of the instrument panel.
 Remove the four small screws on the rear of the instrument panel. They are tiny, do not strip them out! |  You need to remove the headlight brackets to slot them. There is a metal insert in the plastic hole. |
I chose a LED for a BMW G310. The rationale was 1) it side mounted like the G650X, 2) it appeared to to be relatively the same size and 3)the price was right. I bought it from Matt Gekos, but you could save a few bucks if you order from China.com.
Aside from slotting the brackets above, you will also need fix a connector on the LED. It needs a male spade. I also covered the hole to prevent dirt. If I was smarter, I would have put the wire through the connector before I crimped the connector. Whoops! The main connector is correct, no changes needed. You will also need some sort of clipped washer to help prevent the headlight from rotating. I modified ones in the garage, but you might be able to source from McMaster if needed. Also, the you will need two M6X25mm screws.

This was before final adjustment. They are much brighter than stock, Two minor nits. It does not have good cut off on the left side, hopefully, it doesn't piss off other drivers. The high beam is producing light very tall? Am I snipe hunting? ;-)
