If you want HID's on a Harley goto DDMTUNING.com and get the HID kit for the H4 bulb.... it's only $40. I got an HID kit from them on my CBR600rr and loved it... you can choose between the 35W or 55W kit with various colors... I went with the 55W kit and 6000K bulb on my CBR which is very close to pure white light. With the Harley I'm gonna go 35W and 8000K.

I was referring to the HD LED light, part no. 73391-10A, which is has an MSRP of US $494.95.

Just to mention, I installed the Xenon Gas headlight bulb and it's freakin' awesome, and only $23.95! So much brighter and whiter than the stock halogen bulb. One of the best upgrades I've done for my bike.

I found the HD led 5 3/4" on E bay from a Harley dealer. I won the bid at 300.00. It is far superior to anything i have ever used. I have a aftermarket light housing and it fit perfectly.Don't know the fitment on a newer bike.It
would be worth changing the bucket if need be.........This light kicks ***!

Any one with either the LED headlights or the true 35W HID's, do you know what the real, actual, measured current on high and low beam? From what I've researched, the 35 Watt HID's actually draw 55W or better.

HD7585, is your aftermarket light a bullet design? Do you think that the led would work in one?

And watch out for those aftermarket "drop in" hid kits. I will say this. I bought one of the 6000k kits from HIDSRUS and it absolutley was the brightest SOB I have ever seen. But the pattern was so screwed up I knew I was either going to get a ticket or blind someone in the oncomming lane and they would end up in my lane from seeing "SPOTS". Bright as $#CK but certainly not safe!!!! I ended up getting the dual beam halogen. Like it much better then the stock one on my FLHS.
