Added some new mirrors because my old ones were getting rusty, threw my hand guards on because it's getting cold at night, and put in some daymaker ripoffs. With the wiring adapter they don't sit far enough back in the bucket and was only able to get one of the trim ring screws in... When I stop being lazy I'll have to do some cutting and soldering to clean things up a bit and get the lights sitting properly. The low beam isn't terribly impressive but the high beam throws light nice and far.
And I found a sticker to add to the inside of my fairing
they're the moons mc ones. Only have first impressions from a quick ride around the block. The low beams didn't impress me much, but the high beams throw light real well. They lit up reflective freeway signs from about a quarter mile out. But like I mentioned before, cramming the adapter cables into the bucket behind the lights is just a little too much to ask for.
I've been thinking about switching over to single headlight and fairing. Looking at street bob headlight buckets on ebay and what not. What light and mounting block did you use for you single light conversion?

Added this post to a different threat, but thought it might be useful here as well.
Pictures really don't do these things justice with the phone trying to adjust for low light, but I went a few different spots to try and give you an idea. And using them tonight, I've come to realize that these spread light much further to the sides than the halogens.
I haven't gotten anyone flashing their brights at me with the low beams on, so that's cool. If you're one of those guys who likes to ride with brights on all the time... DON'T do that with these.
Shoutout to my Volvo in the background, great mountain car.

Notice the road reflectors in the last shot. I can see anything reflective from VERY far away with the brights on. Comes in handy on winding roads so you can tell how far out and how sharp the next turn will be. I was also able to see the reflection from some critter's eyes crossing the street from over a block away as I was riding from spot to spot to take these. Hopefully this is helpful, I wasn't able to find a whole lot of information when I was looking into buying these.
This is very helpful. Except now you're making me reconsider switching to a single headlight.
If you are planning on running a fairing it looks good, but my setup is definitely gonna put out more light. With no fairing the smaller light looks goofy with the wide front end. But you could always throw a big 7 inch lightup there, I'm sure the daymaker/dayfaker setup would put out a lot of light.

I disagree with looks , I ran a single with no fairing and looked tough . Here are two pics .
