Headlight
i run this on my 06 FXDCi, and Ive got the HD Daymaker on my 03 FXD. The company itself is named Moto Illumination. They have a social media page, Facebook I think. The headlight on my 03 doesnt even compare!
Its plug-and-play, no adapter or anything required. They give you an option instead of the basic black face to order it with a custom face (not the bulbs) color.
The basic black model I ordered was a whopping $125. They even contacted me a couple weeks later doing a quality satisfaction check. They are a real good company. 👍🏼

On my metric, I tried a pair of the Catizon/evick (sp?) F2 LED bulbs last week. These appear to be designed to act like the filaments of a halogen bulb. So far they appear ok, they have the pattern I expected, the color is good (5000k white not blue). Good reviews from others that I ride with. Unfortunately I didn't do before and after pictures and I really don't feel like futzing with the tupperware again. If they work out ok in the long run, I may try this in the old Cibie glass.
GTR Lighting and Morimoto also make LED replacement bulbs that work well in halogen housings. I've got three pairs of GTRs (2 Ultras and a CSP) in three different housings and all work fantastic. One low beam projector, one low beam complex reflector, and one high beam complex reflector.
Truck Light sucks for daytime visibility
Daymaker gives a whiter farther narrower beam
JW is good for town roads and turns

-Have you run other LED lights before this, and does the improvement justify the price?
No. When I was researching a light, I read the reviews and liked the feature set of the JW.
-Aside from the "adaptive" feature, does straight line illumination exceed other lights you've used?
I’ve got buddies with the Moons fly eye, Custom Dynamics and a couple with the Amazon ones. Mine definitely has more throw, and the color is better IMHO.
-Are you equally happy with high and low beam performance?
YES! Lowbeam isn’t bright, and high beam is ridiculous.
-Does the adaptive functionality work well hustling on a twisty road after dark, or does it not really light up the right portion of road?
This is the best thing about the light and honestly the main reason I went with the JW. And yes it really works as advertised.
-They make the same light without the adaptive function for about $150 less... Do you find this functionality worth the $?
ABSOLUTELY!!!
I would certainly pay for the light, provided it's as good as advertised... But I would be irked if a $500 light wasn't "GREAT."
Thanks!
