(5) This customer is in the habit of riding with his headlamp in the dipped position: the bulb in the nearside lamp had blown on various occasions. This probably is due to the bulb holder which is a loose fit with the bayonet cap of the bulb, allowing vibration to shorten the life of the bulb. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /RC. {R.
