Hi beam bulbs, what type are they?

Just received a set of normal fan cooled H1 hi beam bulbs and they were too large to fit. Then found same mfg with minitiure H! hi beam bulbs and after waiting a week and paying another $69.00 they would not fit into the bulb receptacle, they were too large.
So now am trying to find a high performance white 6500 K bulb for both hi beams that will fit and work with single rear positive wire prong for 2020 R1250 RT.

Open for any suggestions......

Help! Hate yellow hi beams on stock bikes.

I believe they’re H7’s, your handbook will confirm this. Or better yet buy some Cyclops LED replacements.

I contacted Cyclops, very uncooperative. Said they have an RT bulb kit Hi and low beam bulbsw for $234.90 plus shipping. Refused to send me a pic of the bulbs. Claimed he has sold and installed thousands in RT with NO issues.

The price is too high for 3 bulbs.

Will look elsewhere and get a quality bulb kit for less money.
