So I *think* I may have found a different option for LED headlights. Was on SuperbrightLED and stumbled across this guy:

Even comes with a mounting bracket for those of us who have the little stump. I think it could work! What do you guys think?

That thing is BUTT UGLY. If you like it, go for it, I wouldn't put that on my bike if it were free. Sorry man, it just isn't me.

Function over form, brother. My bike is leaning more toward the Frankenstein side of things anyhow. The price tag is much more appeasing to me than spending $500 on a daymaker, or slightly less on a different make.

I like it, but the lumens seems low to me? 600 on low beam doesn't seem like much.

This is one of those times when you get what you pay for.
Better to spend $400 and get an HD LED, a TruckLite or one of those new JW Speaker equivalents and get what you actually want and expect, than to waste $130 right now for something you won't be happy with...

I won't give my opinion until I see a pic of your bike with it installed.

This is how I feel as well. It would not look good at all on my bike, but if yours is a bit more Rat Bike. Who knows, maybe.

It's not awful looking at all. I haut worry about quality man. When it comes to bulbs and headlights you usually get what you pay for.
