Default LED head lights...

Was thinking of putting in a LED headlight assembly on my 02 road king. Seems plug and play and easy. Would it be worth it? Make it look more modern but overall when i ride to work its still dark out and i ride county roads for the most part. Found this. Any advice?

I'm running the JW Speaker genII. Got it on amazon for 250 shipped.
I can actually see at night now BIG difference. This light is also very bright in daylight, some like the daymaker are not. My FIL has a tri glide with all led's and they are barely visible during daylight.

Thanks. Looks like I'll have to make the upgrade.

Get on FB and look up Paradise Lights, he is on Amazon also. 115.00 for all three front lights. Can beat the price. They work very well.

Default Try this...

Before you go and buy a daymaker check out the JW Speaker Model 8790. Its really new technology that lights up the corners as you lean. I got one and I love it! It works just like in the video link below....

I saw this video and am actually impressed with the design. Now for the turd, is it DOT legal for the US Market? Are they available in H4 for the sharknose?

Yes it is legal for the USA - it was designed and built in the USA for the USA market. They make a special variant for the Australian market (where I am) so we don't blind oncoming cars coming at us from our RHS.
As far as having H4 connection - I had to get an adapter wiring harness (made by HD) to convert the H4 to whatever was the pinout on the light (can't remember what its called). The good news is there is an adapter available so no wire splicing is necessary. I don't see why it wouldn't fit in your sharknose - it's 7" isn't it? Its a 7" light.
