Default Gonna try one of these bulbs

Philips Motovision

Seems most people really like them. It was a toss-up between them, the Osram Silverstar or the GE Nighthawk. All of them have pretty good praise. Even by the lighting god himself Daniel Stern.

This is the thing that really caught my eye.

40% more white light and a beam up to 50 ft longer than standard halogens
Not only puts out brighter light but the actual beam is longer. Most of these high performance bulbs always tout brighter light but never anything about the actual length of the beam. Not sure how I feel about the orange reflection. But if it helps being seen then I am all for it. Gonna give it a shot and see what happens. At least they are only around $25. Not like the POS PIAA Motorsports bulb that I tried last year and paid $50 for.

I run the Silverstar and my riding buddies swear I am running on high beam. It's white light and seems to light up the road ahead and the side as well. It's all I'll use.
