Default LED headlights

I see a lot of people selling their DayMaker LED headlamps, why is that?

That's interesting.

I was going to spec a Daymaker on the Breakout I've just ordered. However, for 2015 it comes with a LED headlight (not sure which one) as standard.

Not sure if that applies to other bikes in the range.

I'd sell mine because it's the 4 light version and get the 6 light version out. It came out 10 days after I got mine. But that's the only reason.

I have the early version 4 light Daymaker on my NT and it is way better than the original, but would consider selling it to get the latest version.

Highly doubt that you'll find anyone selling a Daymaker to go back to the original.

I have a Daymaker on my FBL. It was in it when I bought it "used" with 364 miles. I have no idea which one it is. I hardly right at night if ever so it is an irrelevant item for me.

I remember when I switched from the sealed beam to the halogens on my RK and it was remarkable difference.

Maybe because HD came out with a newer version that has a wider beam pattern?

Thanks guys for the clarification. Didnt know HD came out with a new one. Any aftermarket ones that are as good but not as pricey??

+1 for the Trucklite Phase 7. It has a wider beam, 3 year warranty, and half the cost. of the Daymaker.

I know when I last looked, the 4 and 6 light versions were the same price.

Don't know about aftermarket ones.
