Default New Pathfinder HD7M LED Headlight

I was one of a few selected by SoCalMotoGear to review their new Pathfinder HD7M LED Headlamp for my 2014 SGS
This is one amazing light with simple plug and play installation. The light comes in black or chrome complete with Mounting bracket for a quick simple installation. Simply remove the headlight ring, 4 mounting screws unplug stock light and plug the new one in, install light with the 4 screws you took out, put the ring back on and your done. Now its time to enjoy a real headlight! Light comes with a H4 connection for the older single bulb lights a adapter harness to fit the new bikes is available that plugs directly into the main harness.
The LEDs are instant on with a nice wide beam that wont disappear on you in the curves and corners like the Flat beam that most LEDs put out. Riding at night with this makes me fee more comfortable knowing I wont out ride my light. My wife said I'm more visible coming down the street during the day also.
No radio noise and does not interfere with your factory or accessory garage transmitter..

The street I am on seems short but it is actually 10 houses on both sides and the light easily reaches the end of the street.

Looks good, wonder how this compares to the HD daymaker projector headlight? Does it put out more light to the sides? Just installed daymaker reflector headlamp and aux lights on my 14 sgs, love the aux lamps but the headlight doesn't seem a whole lot brighter than stock

It is much better than the Daymaker, I recently had to rent a '14 Ultra which had a Daymaker and did not like it a all. Seemed to have a flat straight beam that did you no good in the curves. So I have compared the two and can honestly say this one is way better, less expensive also.
If you notice the beam is wide and has a curve shape at the bottom, this is what seems to help in the corners and curves.

Looks like another version of the JW Speaker made Daymaker.

Yes they all start to look the same but trust me this light performs much better than the "Daymaker "

cools beans. Yeah I would think if JW made a "revision" it's got to be a better light.
