Additional Notes

The CFMOTO CFORCE 500 uses three distinct bulb types across its headlight system: the 9005, H1, and H3, all of which are single-filament halogen bulbs operating on a 12V circuit.
The 9005 bulb follows the ANSI standard used in the United States and Canada, features a P20d base, and draws 65W, making it the highest-wattage bulb specified for this vehicle.
The H1 bulb follows the ECE standard and carries a P14.5s base rated at 55W. Despite its European origin, it holds approval in the US and Japan as well.
The H3 bulb also follows the ECE standard and uses a PK22s base at 55W. Like the H1, it is approved in the US and Japan in addition to European and worldwide markets.
For the 2016-2018 model years, the CFMOTO CFORCE 500 uses the 9005 bulb for both the high beam and low beam headlight positions, meaning a single bulb type serves the entire headlight system during those years.
The 2013-2014 model years use different bulb types for each headlight position: the H1 for the high beam and the H3 for the low beam. These two bulbs are not interchangeable with each other due to their differing base types, P14.5s and PK22s respectively.
A significant fitment distinction exists between the two production periods. The 9005 with its P20d base is incompatible with sockets designed for the H1 or H3, meaning bulbs from the 2013-2014 specification cannot be substituted into 2016-2018 housings, and vice versa.
The wattage difference between the 9005 at 65W and the H1 and H3 at 55W reflects a difference in power draw that may be relevant when assessing electrical load on the vehicle's lighting circuit.
