So I thought I would post up a little comparison of the genssi light compared to the stock dual halogen and the led bulbs in the stock housing. After installing my dynamic rings I was unhappy with the yellow headlight. While searching for options I came across a post from miketd3 about getting rid of a genssi (ebay) led headlight. He offered to give it to me for free (thanks again) as long as I posted a review. I think the pics really tell the story. The genssi is definitely a brighter light at night but Mike's concern about daytime visibility ( that's why he removed it) is certainly valid. The daytime pics are with the bike running the low beam. I like the night vision but I'm not sure the daytime is acceptable. I'm actually thinking the led bulbs in the stock housing may be the path I take. It's just as bright as stock during the day and better than stock at night by far ( but not as bright as the genssi). I'm still on the fence as of now. Sorry for the poor layout of the thread , I'm posting from my phone

Do they show up during the day? The led headlight looks like its completely off at even a slight angle

You need to run LED's on high beam during the daylight to increase visibility.

This is the high beam. It's definitely more visible. I may stick with the led headlight after all

thanks again Mike. The night view is wayyy better than the stock housing for sure. I was truly surprised by the daytime visibility but the high beam helps a bit. Gonna ride it for a bit and see
