Victory Vegas 8-Ball Headlight Bulb Size

The Victory Vegas 8-Ball headlight bulb size chart specifies high beam and low beam bulb options, with high beam sizes of 9003, H11, and H8, while low beam sizes include 9003, H11, and D1R. The replacement chart covers 2005 through 2017 production years with corresponding bulb size data.

Additional Notes

The H11 bulb is the most frequently specified type across the Victory Vegas 8-Ball headlight data, appearing in both high beam and low beam positions across multiple model years. It is a single-filament halogen bulb operating at 12V and 55W, built to the ECE standard and fitted with a PGJ19-2 base.
The 9003 bulb differs from the other halogen types in the specifications by carrying dual filaments, which allows it to serve both high and low beam functions within a single unit. It operates at 12V with a 60W filament for high beam and a 55W filament for low beam, and uses a P43t base under the ANSI standard applied in the US and Canada.
The H8 bulb is a single-filament halogen type rated at 12V and 35W, making it the lowest wattage halogen bulb in these specifications. It uses a PGJ19-1 base, which is physically distinct from the PGJ19-2 base of the H11, meaning the two types are not interchangeable despite their similar appearance.
The D1R is the only non-halogen bulb type in the specifications. It is an HID (xenon) discharge bulb rated at 85V and 35W, with an integral ignitor and a PK32d-3 base. The "R" designation indicates it is designed specifically for reflector-type headlamp housings, and it is not compatible with projector-type housings.
For the Victory Vegas 8-Ball, the 2016-2017 high beam headlight position uses the 9003 bulb, while earlier model years use single-filament types, meaning the 9003 is not a drop-in replacement for those positions.
The low beam headlight on 2005-2009 models was offered with either a D1R HID bulb or an H11 halogen bulb depending on the headlamp system installed. These two bulb types operate on fundamentally different electrical principles and use incompatible bases, so substituting one for the other is not possible without modifying the headlamp assembly.
The high beam headlight on 2005-2010 models uses the H8 bulb, while the low beam on those same years uses either H11 or D1R depending on the trim. Because H8 and H11 share a similar form factor but have different base types (PGJ19-1 versus PGJ19-2), they are not interchangeable, and using the wrong type risks improper fitment or electrical incompatibility.
From 2011 onward, the low beam headlight standardized on the H11 bulb across all listed years, while the high beam transitioned from H11 (2011-2015) to the dual-filament 9003 (2016-2017), reflecting a change in headlamp system design between those production periods.
