FWIW.....

I sent Harley customer service a product information request, via their website, asking if they could tell me the color temperature of the HD Adaptive LED headlight...

If they know and are willing to share.... we'll be able to tell exactly how "white" it is....

I already got the "we appreciate you contacting us" confirmation email. Allegedly they will respond within 48 hours..

If they do respond, I'll be sure to post up what they say....

Thanks, I'm curious and never saw it posted anywhere either. I just went off their videos and the sales pic, both show the light being a brighter white than what I have.

Do these colors looks the same to anyone else?

Sorry but in the pic the headlight is more "yellow"
Beautiful ride though. Even with the headlight.

I have this headlight and absolutely love it. I can actually use brights now. I have the radiance sequential LED turn signals (with smoked lens covers) and they are not an exact match to the white of the headlight. I never noticed or even thought about it until I saw this post.

So...have you had a chance to take her out to test the adaptive feature yet? You could always tint the turn lenses to match the headlight.

I like the color differential, between the CD and HD lights. Makes it stand out some, visually.

Yeah... on the Harley Website they list the light color as, "Lighting color: White".... That sure tells me a lot... sheesh...

If they answer me, we'll know for sure..... but...

Based on your picture, I would estimate the HD adaptive LED headlight somewhere around 3500°-4000°K and the CD turn signals look to be a solid 5000°K plus... probably closer to 6000°K
