Worth every penny.

The adjustment was easy in the driveway using the wall or garage door. 10 minutes.

I noticed mine was in the trees on my breakout (4 3/4" LED), and adjusted it down - but the original headlight was aimed too high also. On the 4" model, both hi & lo stay on, and it adds light in a narrow area. Here are pictures of the difference...

I agree it's expensive, but worth it in my mind for safety reasons. Almost a grand with the spot lights too.

At first I thought they were too expensive but not only can I see WAY better at night but when I ride with the hi beam on during the day people notice me a lot easier. Its definitely worth the investment of additional safety added. plus it looks bad A.

Haven't had a real opportunity to try it out at night but the mere fact that I'm way more visible in daytime traffic makes it worth it for me. Would've preferred the Trucklite brand but they don't make one for me smaller deuce headlight yet.

And oh yeah, mine did need to be adjusted down but i also required the anti-vibration damper rubber insert so that may have been the cause
