If you can and don't mind spending for an adaptive headlight, do it!
I run a truck lite and it's a good light with a great high beam but man would I love to have that extra light in the corners.

I just ordered the JW Speaker adaptive 2 for a pretty good price. $501 with free shipping from Cheap Cycle Parts. But they did charge me tax. I found the SG adaptor on eBay for $22. JW makes the Custom Dynamic adaptive headlight but its a couple hundred dollars more but you get a better warranty.

I have bought one cheap Amazon LED headlight, cannot remember the brand. While it was brighter than the stock light on my 13 FLS, it had a lot of dead spots. Didn't want to go down that road again.

I run truck lights on my Jeep, they are bright. Put one of them on my bike for a test run, I agree with you about the need of extra light to fill the void.

I used SoCalMotorGear in the past. I think I may go with them again, but also checking out other options before I pull the trigger.

Lots of good reviews, good price too. Thought about their kit with headlight and auxiliary lights, just not sure if I want auxiliary lights.
