Default Silverstar H4ST bulb at night...

Tonight was the first night I really had a chance to try out this new bulb in my bike. I went to a cemetary where it was very dark. It is extreemly bright. There are so many lights in this city that it was necessary to find a dark place. I am extremely impressed with this bulb. It seems as though cars see me from further away in daylight, and in the dark, so this bulb has done it's job. I would recommend this bulb to al for better visibility either of where they are going, or for others to see them.

Thanks for the follow-up to your daytime post regarding your bulb upgrade. Guess I need to ride down to theparts shop at some point and pick one up.

Congrats on the Silver stars, I too installed one and it looked great. My only problem was the color of my running lights on my Deuce. They had the yellow look on them because of the color rendering index of those lamps, so I got with my lamp distributor (who actually gave me my H4st) and told him my problem and within 2 weeks I got the new lamps and what a difference. If someone cant see me at nite, they dont need to be driving. I still need to get pics onhere.

Did you see dead people? Seriously, do they have one of these for the RKC?

I also installed the Silverstar H4ST in my 05 Ultra, and noticed a GREAT improvement. My spotlights looked pale yellow next to it, so I ordered halogen sealed beams from J&P Cycles for the spotlights. Together they really light up the night, SO much better than stock.
