I bought and installed this light a few weeks ago. It was quick and easy to install and the difference is amazing! Well worth the $$ at half the price of the HD light.
I read somewhere that the JW 8700 is the HD light minus the Harley emblem.

That is the route I am going. $10 vs. $350. Saw some posts on Facebook, if the bulb works as the pics suggest, it is going to be a perfect solution way..... cheaper! Maybe I will post some side by side pics.
Here are some side by side by side pics. Left is OEM. New bulb is way brighter and whiter. Not exactly the Harley LED light, but for $10 plenty good enough for me.

LEDs
Wanting to put an LED headlight on my switchback. Was looking at different models and found the daymaker on Amazon cheap. And saw that Harley sells for $524.00. Is there really that much of a difference. Any input from someone who has installed new Led would be appreciated
Thanks

What's with the plug for nice.com? It has nothing to do with Harleys or headlights.
