Additional Notes

The Yamaha XV19 Raider uses the 194 bulb size for the license plate position across all model years from 2008-2017.
The 194 is an ANSI-standardized bulb type recognized across the United States and Canada, meaning it conforms to a defined set of electrical and physical characteristics rather than being a proprietary specification.
The 194 bulb follows the T10 miniature wedge form factor, a designation that refers to its tubular glass envelope and wedge-shaped base, which seats directly into a socket without a separate metal base or pins.
The bulb operates at 12 volts, consistent with the standard electrical system voltage found in most motorcycles and automotive applications.
At 3.78 watts, the 194 represents a low-wattage output, which is typical for license plate illumination where functional visibility rather than high brightness is the primary requirement.
Because the 194 uses a wedge base, fitment depends on socket compatibility with that base type rather than a bayonet or screw configuration, and substitutions using different base styles would not be physically interchangeable.
