By the way, my CBR used Honda's proprietary 45/45 watt H4 bulbs with the two lower tabs at a different angle than standard H4 bulbs. I got standard 55/60 watt H4 bulbs and snipped off the lower tabs. The top tab centers the bulb and the springy wire holds it in.
Ha! I had to do that with aftermarket high wattage bulbs back in the day!
