The Aprilia RSV 1000 R Factory headlight bulb size specifications include H11 and H7 bulb options for both high beam and low beam applications. The replacement chart covers 2004 through 2009 model years with corresponding bulb size data.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The H11 and H7 bulb types are the two halogen standards specified for the Aprilia RSV 1000 R Factory across all listed model years, with both operating at 12V and 55W.
Both the H11 and H7 are single-filament halogen bulbs, meaning each bulb produces only one light output level rather than switching between two intensities within the same unit.
The H11 uses a PGJ19-2 base, while the H7 uses a PX26d base. These two base types are physically incompatible with each other, so the bulbs are not interchangeable despite sharing the same voltage and wattage ratings.
The Aprilia RSV 1000 R Factory uses H11 bulbs for both high beam and low beam positions in the 2006-2009 model years, and H7 bulbs in the same dual positions for the 2004-2005 model years.
Both the H11 and H7 conform to ECE regulations, which govern lighting standards across Europe and much of the world. Both types also carry approval for use in the United States, and the H7 additionally holds approval in Japan.
The high beam and low beam positions share the same bulb specification in every listed model year, indicating that a single bulb type serves both functions within the headlight assembly for a given year.
The transition from H7 to H11 between the 2005 and 2006 model years affects both the high beam and low beam positions simultaneously, reflecting a change in the base type from PX26d to PGJ19-2.
