If you adjusted the Headlight according to th.instructions, it’s gonna be way too low. Give the adjuster screw a full turn in and go from there. Love that fattie.

I have rear dirty bird fast air ride so I can adjust on the fly on the road, I have a button on my handlebars next to the clutch handle for ease of use.

JW Speaker makes the H-D headlamps FWIW. Been looking at getting one but I definitely don’t want a yellow beam. I don’t know what it is but I hate that look.

I figured they did, just wish JW has the same style released without the HD tag on so the price wouldn't be so high. The one JW has out looks nothing like the HD one.

I have the JW adaptive 2 and I hadn’t noticed it being yellow. I thought it matched my CD turn signals. Now I have to go check. That was a main reason for me to get an LED, so it would match.

I think it matches or at least I did until I went to take a pic of it. I could see a slight yellowish.

The light output color matches better than my Harley one, I just didn't care for the look of that headlight. I've been debating for months on weather or not to just buy it, then I saw the new Harley adaptive and knew it was the one I wanted to go with my bike.
