I am travelling to France next month & i believe that you have to carry a set of spare bulbs.
Does anyone know if there is a kit available, or would i just have to buy individual bulbs?
I have the latest 300 super sport.

GTS bulb kit
Poundland H4 bulb kit for me
We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm

You won't need a warning triangle but you WILL need a yellow Hi Vis. H4 headlamp but the rear lights are a push in wedge type of fitting, I have a feeling the kit Shocky is referring to will have bayonet push and twist ones. In reality, you are very unlikely to be challenged and the Gendarmes wouldn't know if they were the right ones or not. EVERY French supermarket will have a motoring isle that puts to average motor accessory shop to shame and the motorway services are well stocked too so getting replacement bulbs won't be a problem either.
Do be careful if you are using a satnav, they are very fussy about anything that warns you of even fixed speed cameras. A friend had his confiscated and was fined 300 euros on the spot

Pay no attention Spud, it was a valid question, this is not a pure classic scooter forum and tbh, the chances of getting an informed response from the modern Vespa forum is pretty slim imho.Yanker wrote:Spud wrote:....Not kidding, here is YOUR forum http://modernvespa.com/forum/
Spud, Halford do a H4 12v kit for motorcyles, contains everything but the orange indicator bulbs including some fuses.
