Passing Lamp Upgrade '96 FLHTCI

I upgraded to the HD halogens a few years back which were better than the sealed beams but this year went to the Trucklite LEDs. Between that and my HID headlamp I can see as well or better at night as in a car with two headlights.

I dunno how my LED headlight compares to the HID, but I can tell you that Dr.Linda's Sporty with the HD LED headlight is MUCH brighter during the day than a Genuine HD Halogen upgrade on a 2012 FLHT ultra-whatever. Both were riding behind me and the difference in light intensity in my rear view mirror was remarkable.

A further alternative are the conventional high performance bulbs now available. May not be as effective as HID or LED, but cheaper and a great enhancement. I have actually chucked my genuine Harley HID headlight. Dip beam was superb for daytime, but the light was useless at night in the dark.

I appreciate the suggestions ... I don't have the funds right now to invest in LED's so I'm leaning toward Halogen ... I upgraded the headlight a couple years ago and was impressed with the difference over stock ... now it's time to do the passing lamps ... hope everyone has a great and safe Labor Day weekend
