The KTM 950 Super Enduro R uses 5008 and 232 bulb sizes for both front and rear turn signal applications. Replacement chart data spans 2007 to 2009 production years.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The 5008 is a single-filament bulb with a BA15s bayonet base, rated at 12V, and classified as a lower wattage variant of the 1156 under the ANSI standard used in the US and Canada.
The 232 is a festoon bulb with an SV8.5 base, rated at 12V and 3W, also conforming to the ANSI standard used in the US and Canada.
A festoon bulb differs from a bayonet-base bulb in its physical form: it is cylindrical with end caps that make contact at both ends, rather than a rounded base that locks into a socket with a twist.
The BA15s bayonet base found on the 5008 uses a single contact pin, distinguishing it from dual-contact bayonet bases used in two-filament bulbs.
The front turn signal on the KTM 950 Super Enduro R uses the 5008 for the 2008-2009 model years, while the 2007 model year uses the 232 instead.
The rear turn signal specification is inverted relative to the front: the 2007 and 2009 model years use the 5008, while the 2008 model year uses the 232.
Because the front and rear turn signals do not share the same bulb type across all model years, the 5008 and 232 are not interchangeable with each other in these positions without accounting for the specific year and location.
The 5008 and 232 operate on the same 12V system but differ in base type, physical form, and wattage, which makes direct substitution between the two incompatible without a socket adapter or housing modification.
