The KTM 530 XC-W uses a 6235B bulb size for both high beam and low beam headlight applications. The replacement chart covers 2010 to 2011 production years with corresponding bulb specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The 6235B is the bulb type used across all listed headlight positions on the KTM 530 XC-W, covering both the high beam and low beam functions for the 2010-2011 model years.
The 6235B is classified as a festoon bulb, a form factor characterized by a cylindrical lamp body with end-cap contacts rather than a base socket, allowing it to bridge two contact points within a housing.
The 6235B carries an ANSI standard designation, meaning it conforms to a defined set of electrical and physical specifications recognized in the United States and Canada.
The glass envelope of the 6235B is blue tinted, which alters the color temperature of the emitted light compared to clear glass equivalents of the same wattage.
The 6235B operates on a 12V electrical system, consistent with the standard voltage found in most production motorcycles.
The 6235B is designated as a specialty application bulb, indicating it is not a general-purpose replacement type and is intended for specific fitments rather than broad interchangeability.
Because the same bulb type fills both the high beam and low beam positions on the KTM 530 XC-W, the distinction between the two functions is handled by the housing or circuit design rather than by separate bulb types.
