Headlight advice
I need some headlight advice...
Went on my first night drive and uh, the stock headlight sucks. I don't mind the way it looks since adding the extension, or whatever you call it, on the end but it just doesn't seem bright enough...or maybe its not adjusted right. A few things...
1. Do they make a different headlight for the stock housing that works better?
2. Does anyone have a link on the best way to adjust the headlight?

Yup, that's it. Comes with a super bright bulb, too.
Took about 45 minutes to put it in. Finally realized I had to turn the rubber bumper that's in the bucket around. Looks good, too.

I am also going to order chrome Alloy Art strut fender rear lights from J&P Cycles also... hopefully they come in at the same time. The fender strut lights look really easy to install also. http://www.jpcycles.com/product/330-0139

Yea, there is nothing worse that driving at night and feeling like you can only see about 2 ft in front of you.

Daniel Stern Lighting. Bulbs for the headlamp, and good headlamp housings. I got the Cibie headlamp and an Osram bulb for my Ultra and my Deuce, BIG difference. I don't like riding at night, but this bulb makes it much nicer.
