Not to sound like an ass but how about you change the bulb. I haven't done it yet but I know I've read about people putting in a brighter bulb

I will check into that thanks

If your bike takes an H4, you could try a a 100/80 watt bulb. Stock is a 60/55. At NAPA, it's part # BP1210H4, $9.50.

I was disappointed with the brightness of the headlight on my SG as well. When it blew out on my way home from work recently, I stopped into a automotive parts store and got one of the most expensive direct replacement bulbs they had, around $50, and was very surprised and super pleased with the serious increase in brightness it provides.

As I am sure you know, one needs to upgrade the bulb socket pigtail to handle the extra current pulled by the higher wattage bulbs or you may fry the OEM socket/wiring.

I have a ceramic socket and pigtail ready and waiting, but have seen no signs of needing it so far.

Check and adjust the beam adjustment, my headlight was pointing to the sky when my bike was delivered.

I installed a 50 watt BiXeon 6000K bulb in mine and holy crap !!! what a difference it made.

I put this light in my sb...
