Get the ProBeams. I have them on front and rear of my StreetGlide and they are awesome.

Can you see the halo on the probeam?? I like the idea of matching the look of it with the halo headlight from Hogworkz.

So glad you clarified that. I just ordered front and back Probeams per advice of the counter guy at my HD dealer, and a customer who was standing there who had them. They looked almost too bright on his counter display, but I went with their advice. As I was reading this thread, (like JLB2782 & Caulk04), I also liked the look of the Genesis from the photo that the Custom Dynamics guy posted because I want to see the Halo to match my front headlight. I considered calling the dealer tomorrow to change my order. Then I read what the Custom Dynamics guy said about the photo... (Perhaps CD should consider a new lens, or new camera for their advertising photos, if they are not accurate). So thanks, FLHTCUSE KENTUCKY. Your bike looks awesome! You confirmed that I ordered the right thing.

As with all LED light upgrades, prepare for the increased onslaught of BUGS in the future!

Bugs are not attracted as much to LED. So no worries there. When you put LED lights outside your home you will have 95% reduction in bugs attracted to them. I have no clue why and I had not noticed this on my own until someone told me. So what I do is go watch my lights at night and sure enough I no longer have bugs attracted. Not 100% convinced so I go to my two sisters homes who live side by side. One sister has LED and other has incandescent light. Bugs all around the incandescent and none around the LED. Who would have thought.

sorry for the highjack
