What kind of bulbs are the headlights on my 2001 F4i?

Also do any of you guys use reflective tape on your helments/bikes or bands around your pants/jacket? I want something either all silver or silver/black no orange or yellow. I'm going to put a band on both my legs to keep the knee guards in the right place and also obviously for the reflection

12V 55w H7 bulbs, 1 for each side. i picked up a pair of the sylvania silverstars and they look really good, they give a really bright white light instead of yellow. as far as reflective material goes, a lot of people put relective rim tape on their bikes to make it look cool, and because it really glows at night. check out http://www.tapeworks.com for them. hope that helps!
