Headlights and Auxiliary Spotlights

More light with new motorbike headlights

A good headlight on a motorbike is not only indispensable, but also mandatory. Visibility is the be-all and end-all on a motorbike. Bright and powerful lighting is the best way to be visible. Good motorbike lighting is not only important at night, but can also save lives during the day. Poor weather conditions, such as rain, fog and snow, can also quickly lead to poor visibility during the day.

More safety with LED motorbike auxiliary lights

The standard motorbike main headlights are often not sufficient to see enough on the road. The halogen headlights that are usually installed cannot keep up with LED headlights. In order to still have good lighting on your motorbike, we recommend replacing your halogen headlights or fitting additional motorbike headlights. This will significantly improve your visibility and make you more visible to other road users.

It is not only safety-related reasons that motivate many motorcyclists to fit LED auxiliary headlights to a motorbike, they can also look good. In our range, you will therefore find auxiliary headlights for motorbikes in various designs. When fitting the LED motorbike auxiliary headlight, make sure that it is fitted as close as possible to the main headlight so that the motorbike can still be recognised as a single-track vehicle.

Do motorbike headlights have to have an E-test?

All lighting must have an ECE test number in the EU. Without a test number, motorbike headlights or auxiliary headlights are not approved for road use. So when buying a main headlamp and a motorbike auxiliary headlamp for your motorbike, make sure that they have an ECE number.

What is an ECE test number?

In the EU, there are components that may not be fitted without an ECE test number. These include, for example, exhaust systems, lighting and mirrors. The ECE test number indicates that the component complies with EU safety standards and is therefore authorised for road use. If a component does not have an ECE test number, you must be able to present either an ABE or a parts certificate.

Do auxiliary headlights on motorbikes have to be registered?

In principle, you do not have to register your auxiliary headlights on your motorbike. However, the auxiliary headlamp must have an E-mark. Please also note that there are legal requirements for the number of auxiliary headlights on the motorbike. A maximum of two low beam headlights, two high beam headlights and two fog lights may be fitted to a motorbike.

What kind of motorbike headlights are there?

There are two different types of motorbike headlights. Halogen headlights are an older technology that is still in use. Halogen headlights are still fitted as standard in many vehicles due to their favourable price and ease of installation.

Compared to halogen headlights, LED headlights for motorbikes have the advantage of significantly higher luminosity. This means you are not only seen much better on the road, but also have better visibility. Due to the more robust nature of LED headlights, they also have a longer service life than halogen headlights. Further advantages are the lower energy consumption and the compactness of the LED headlights on the motorbike. This is a huge advantage, especially for motorbike headlights. When buying, note that headlights must have parking light, high beam and low beam functions.
