Honda Motorcycle XR250L headlight bulbs utilize a 9003 size for both high beam and low beam functions. The replacement chart covers 1991 to 1996 production years with corresponding bulb size specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Honda Motorcycle XR250L uses the 9003 bulb size across all listed model years (1991-1996) for both high beam and low beam headlight positions.
The 9003 is an ANSI-standard designation recognized in the United States and Canada, making it a regionally standardized specification rather than a proprietary or manufacturer-specific size.
This bulb is a dual-filament halogen type, meaning a single bulb unit contains two separate filaments that serve both the high beam and low beam functions independently.
The 9003 operates on a 12-volt electrical system and carries a wattage rating of 60W on the high beam filament and 55W on the low beam filament.
The base type for the 9003 is P43t, a standardized bayonet-style base with a 43mm collar, which determines physical socket compatibility in the headlight housing.
Because both the high beam and low beam positions share the same 9003 specification across the entire 1991-1996 range, a single bulb type serves the full headlight assembly rather than requiring separate bulbs for each function.
The 9003 designation is the ANSI equivalent of the internationally designated H4 bulb. These two designations share the same physical construction and electrical ratings, though fitment interchangeability depends on the specific socket and housing design of the motorcycle.
