Has anyone tried that ridiculously priced LED headlight?
#21
Yes I did got the HD LED's on both bikes, I am very happy, I ride at night actually prefer it in the heat so lighting is important to me, plus I have OA disease (Old Age) my night vision is not up to Vampire strength anymore. I highly Recommend these if ya do any night riding, the reviews on the TL and the kury 7 light are pretty good too I just prefer the look of the HD light. We just had a death here in Fla with Car/Alligator meetings not more than 5 miles from my house on a road I ride a lot, the fkrs are horny right now and will cross the turnpike in rush hour to get a peice of a$$.
Best review I have seen for any product ever

Got my HD light from LSHD took 2 weeks to get the both just plug in the part number and look at discounted pricing.

I hope these lights come down in price, these things will save lots of night wrecks and deer colisions and possibly a few lives.

I do loads of high spped night riding, I have tried silverstars and HID's on my bike saved my chrome cash and bought the HID headlight and spots. I wiated till open house events and saved cash. The spots are great lighting up curbs and pot holes well in advance. The headlight is better light than either the HID's or the silverstar. In my opinion I am glad to have this set up. It is expensive but if it saves me from hitting a obsticle in the road itll be worth it. The Picture of the lights on HD's website is very accurate by the way. Half hour to install in the garage. the way i did my comparison was at night same roads, HId's and regular driving lights took a ride. Home swap complete another ride. Worth the price. My HID's are Mccollugh. Not a knock off cheap brand. Like others have said if you do lots of night time riding worth the $$ if not why spend it. JMHO

I bought one for the wifes sporty and it put my baggers lights to shame, I was really impressed. We do night riding sometimes but not by choice and what all the reviews say are accurate. I ordered one for my bagger but theyre on back order from House of HD in W.I and hopefully will be shipped out at the end of the month. Well worth the $$ IMO

Going to say the same thing I've said in other threads, for about 1/10 the price you can go HID, about the same brightness, and I do drive at night. Just out of curiosity, are there any automotive companies running LED's? Don't get me wrong, I like them, just the pricing is way higher than it should be.

Yes I saw a guy last week at HD shop getting installed on his 07C with 13K miles on it . I ask him if he rides at night lot his answer no but want to be seen by others in day light. I would put that kind of money in it if I ride at night, but I ride early morning some times but never through the night yet in last 87K in last 5 years.

Just put Truck Lite LEDs on headlamp and passing lamp (Kuryakyn) and the passing lamps make a huge difference. I've seen it posted before that we riders have no problem spending the $$ on bling but sometimes have a hard time spending it on safety items. I think we are all worth the costs.
