My JW Speaker has been great, but I went with a set of the Eagles when I bought the passing light setup.

Eagle's pricing is good, and their customer service is fantastic. They have a presence here on the site.

I had a Amazon special on my last bike for years. Worked great with no problems. On my new one I just installed an led bulb from Auxito. If it ***** the bed I'll get another Amazon led.

I’ve put Sunpie on several of mine and my son’s bikes and never had any issues. I did headlight and spots on a couple bikes that had them and also did a couple 5.75” headlights, they were all bright and none burnt out while I had them.

Searching I am finding so many different options with quite the range of prices. From as low as $60 to as high as $400.
My question, is $400 headlight that much better than a $60 or even $100 one?

I could give a rats *** about a brand name on a headlight.
Always the first task is to make absolutely sure the headlamp is setup correctly. On my bike it was pointing low so no matter how bright the lamp it wouldn't have lit up the road.

Before you buy anything watch Headlight Revolution's video on the best 7 inch headlight. You can find them on YouTube. Very informative.

I wasn't aware that HR had a motorcycle headlight video. I've pointed others to their video on how to adjust LED headlight bulbs in automotive applications in the past. They had some handy tips.
I'll have to check it out.
