I'm thinking of changing my XB12R's headlights. For the low beam I'm looking for something to make it brighter and maybe give it a blue haze. For the high beam to give it a brighter ultra white light. If anyone knows the light part numbers and has any ideas please let me know.

I've read in one of the moto-rags that one must be aware that bluish tinted lighting makes it harder for you as a driver to distinguish objects reflecting off the headlight beam as compared to the normal spectrum of light that stock bulbs produce, assuming lighting intensities are equal. Conversely whitish to yellowish tending lights make it easier for eyes to distinguish objects in the beam.
