I have a 2011 Fatboy and would like to upgrade the lighting. The Kuryakyn headlight seems to be the best deal on an LED light. I have heard there are issues with my bike due to the low current draw. Has anyone experienced this and how do you like the light? Thanks for any help!

That's the best deal out there. They also have a kit if you have the auxillary lights like a Heritage.

 

Thanks for the reply! I do have auxiliary lights as well. Any issues with the low current draw?

 

I have the three piece kit on my 95 Heritage and works great. The low current draw is a bonus because that leaves more power available to the starter when cranking this old beast up.


You have to deal with issues of low current draw / light load / low resistance when you start fooling with turn signals. I went with custom dynamics flat plate inserts on my turn signals, fender tips, and tail / brake lights.

The headlight sticks out further than stock and looks goofy, but that is easily taken care of with a frenched in trim ring.

 

Here is a link for the three piece kit.

I run the phase 7 light on my 2011 Fatboy Lo with out any issues. No codes and no need for a load equalizer.

 

I have a 03 Fatboy has anyone have the headwinds headlight ? Will it work on my bike ?

 

Can you post a link to the specific headlight, as headwinds makes more headlights than I can count.
