Strange gremlin happening this year on my turbo Apex. After a few rides the right side headlight bulb low beam element burns out, sometimes the high beam too. Just the right side, happened 4 times now.
Anyone else experience this?
I have solid motor mounts, wondering if it's a harmonic or vibration shaking that side. Not sure why the left side survives just fine... Doesn't look like there is any corrosion to plugs and the terminals seem tight.
Any ideas how to cure this? Or things to check?

Get a multimeter on the plug and compare to the working side. Both Voltage and Amps.
You could try to mount the pod with rubber orings to help buffer in case of vibration but being that they take a pounding on the trail the small amount of vibration you think would do a thing.
