Default LED Headlight

Trading in 2015 XL1200c on a 2017 Fatboy this Sunday. I ride a lot to work and early morning can still be dark. Other than the Daymaker what aftermarket LED headlight are you using that is priced right?

Running this in my 2011 FB LO. Perfect fit, plug and play, much better than original.

I'm not on a Softail but on my Road King I put a set of Sun Pie on that I purchased through Amazon. They seem pretty decent.

I have the Sunpie from Amazon on my Dyna ... very pleased with it and it was under $40 when I bought it.

Definitely don't drink the Kool-Aid and buy HD's overpriced light. Tons of cheaper/excellent choices out there. Bought a $50 Osram fm btdirectsale on eBay lasy May and it's still shining bright.

I've run these on ALL my Harley's. They are exactly the same as the HD branded without the logo:

I second this. I have the Sunpie, used it pretty extensively this weekend, running in the dark early and late hours. It's great. I have a 16 Heritage, so I have the running lamps, too, and boy,they make you visible during the day! (I run them pretty much all the time.)

So... you're saying that Eagle's headlights, that are most likely made in China "are exactly the same" as Harley's headlights, that are made by J.W.Speaker IN AMERICA?

That's exactly what I'm saying...I personally don't care where they're made, the Eagle Light are 70% less expensive than the HD lights and provide the same exact lighting. I speak from experience having run both the HD LED which was OEM on my Ultra and the Eagle version on my Low Rider, VROD & Slim. I'm cool with the whole made in USA thing, but there also has to be some distinguishing between the word "made" and "assembled. Something tells me that not all of the components in t HD/JW version are made here in the US.
