This is what I use in my 6v Falcone.
Out of Phoenix.
There is a UK seller if you're not US local.

Also note that most of the LED bulbs are designed for Negative ground systems. I'm not familiar with the circuitry but I've found, the hard way, that those that work at all on neg. ground systems (as many do) will be on HIGH beam at all times.They don't switch. The only solution is to convert the whole bike to Neg. ground or put a DC->DC transformer in the circuit to drive just the headlight.

Thx Patrick. They talk about load equalizers, did you have a need for that for the bulb to work properly ?
Thx.

I have used these in my Fslcone, Ercole.and also on a MV CS 175cc.
They are 6V, 12V, 24V, negative and positive earth ..
It doesn't matter what the state of the reflector is either as they don't depend on it.



Not sure of a US source but I will let those local to see what they can find.

You can also check with the vintage car parts websites that sell bulbs.

Only certain light kits need a voltage stabilizer. But there are plenty of other non-polarity sensitive type bulbs out there to choose from.

No problem. Plug and play. I have a small 6V AGM battery. Headlamp is
very white and very bright.
