LED headlamp
Weigh out the price and instability of an HID upgrade and also the cost of these brighter short life bulbs and $237 isn't that much. The only thing I am worried about it companies making these and using sub-par LED's. If this is a good product and throws out a decent amount of light I am gonna look into getting one. Might as well be the guinea pig for the rest of ya.
The specs:
Part Number:
27250C - 7” Round LED Headlamp
Material:
• Hard Coated Polycarbonate Lens
• Anodized Aluminum Housing
• Metalized Reflector
• Encapsulated circuitry
Light Source:

4.5a (High Beam)
2.5a (Low Beam)
Additional Specifications:
• Operating Temperature Range:
-50C to 70C
• Overvoltage spike protection to 600v
• Constant output
Also has a 3 year limited warranty.
And you can take the lower price out of the equation.

I believe that these will put the HID's outta business.
I wish you were right! I've spent a small fortune on LED's.
I think TheShrink gets a kickback from teh LED industry, or maybe he has partial ownership of the patent or something 
All kidding aside, that would be something to consider, especially for the RK guys like me, where we don't have a ton of extra room in the nacelle to hid the ballast for HID, the LED would be a nice alternative.

I got one of the HID lights, but after remaking the mounting hardware I set it back in the bat wing to give it a frenched look. It took about 1 1/2 in. off the chrome dome look from the side, so for me it is worth it for the better light. Riding here in Puerto Rico is like riding the back streets of any major city, you never know what you will run across or into. So the extra light is well worth it, especially, for someone who rides day and night in all weather.
