The Ducati 1198 headlight bulb uses an H11 size for both high beam and low beam functions. The replacement chart covers vehicle production years spanning 2009 to 2011.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The H11 bulb type appears across all listed model years of the Ducati 1198, covering both high beam and low beam headlight positions for the 2009-2011 production span.
The H11 is a single-filament halogen bulb operating on a standard 12-volt automotive electrical system, rated at 55 watts, and uses a PGJ19-2 base connector.
Because the Ducati 1198 uses the H11 for both high and low beam functions, the two positions share the same bulb specification, though they remain separate physical housings requiring individual replacement.
The H11 belongs to the H-series of halogen bulbs defined under ECE Regulation 37, which governs bulb standards across European and international markets.
H11 bulbs are not cross-compatible with the closely related H8 or H9 types despite sharing the same PGJ19-2 base family, as wattage ratings and tab positions differ between them.
The consistent H11 fitment across the 2009-2011 model years of the 1198 indicates no mid-cycle change in headlight bulb specification during that production period.
