    if you put higher wattage bulbs they will keep blowing?? i think.. and if its a two stroke i find it hard to put a full HID kit on.. since 2 strokes dont have steady lights..

    there must be some way of improving the lights , compared to my vespa t5 they are terrible , why would they keep blowing ? if i replace most of the bulbs with led bulbs could i uprate the headlamp bulbs to 25/30 watt per side or is the wiring not up to it ,

    the maximum wattage a zip headlight can take is 35 watts. anymore it'll just keep blowing the bulb.

    if you put a halogen light kit it will work as it connects to the battery and to your light beam which will make your light steady and very bright :)

    edgar do you mean a halogen bulb because i cant seem to find a hid kit for p26s bulbs and they are all 35watt which on a mk1 zip i would have 70watts of drain of the battery just with the headlamps alone
