Yesterday the right rear red bulb stopped working so I was looking at the manual to figure out what type I need to buy. It specifies the wattage as 21/5. What kind of specification is this? Is it 21W, 5W or 4.2W ?

Without doing lots of research (I'm tired and about to go to bed  :snigger: ) I'm guessing it is dual filament/dual purpose maybe? 5 watt tail light / 21 watt brake light.. I could be wrong, Lester was once.  :cool:

Think I'm right..
