Default Daymaker headlight

Finally broke down and bought a daymaker headlight. Walnut creek Harley has all led headlights on sale for 15% off all week. Not much of a discount but it was enough to get me to buy it. I didn't get any before pics, but I really like it. I justified buying the pricey light because I split lanes after dark and I'm hoping the whiter light will help me stand out more from the car lights.. Hope I didn't just jinx myself by saying that.. Sorry for the crappy garage pics

Edit: Does anyone know what the extra red wire that's not part of the 3 wire connector on the light is for?

Hey Man, yeah, that's for the parking light on the HDI European models, disregard it.

Dig it!

I was on the phone during my last post so yeah, tape it off and don't worry about it, like I said, HDI models use it. In Europe their cars and bikes have a little light that you turn on if you park on a curb somewhere. I think it is that little bitty round pencil eraser sized light that would stay on for them.

The discount was enough to get me to buy it there this week too. Haven't had a chance to ride with it yet, but it sure looks bright.

I got a postcard that McGuire Harley Davidson moved from Walnut Creek to Pacheco. Did you get the light at the new location?
Is 15% off just the headlights or all stuff?
