Guess it then really depends on your OEM bulb "style", whether it was halogen from original, or you can get a drop-in halogen AND if they're available here in NZ. (How old is the XT? - started out with a XT250 here.) Start with the manual, I'd say, and see if it refers to a bulb ID/type - H4, H1, something else. Maybe get the bulb out so you can take it into somewhere like Repco or SCA and have a see if anything matches - ideally on the bulb ID, but have a look at the bases, connectors & filament placements too; if you think one will fit, buy the cheapest as a spare/test; don't suggest you go up in wattage either on a bike like the XT (where the headlight is driven off a dedicated generator winding IIRC). If you can't get a fit, have a chat with the Yamaha dealer or a local bike spares shop; if they can't help, find the bulb ID off your current bulb or manual & try a search on Ebay? HTH
