Been using the PIAA anti-vib - I think I got about 20,000 miles out of the first one. Much brighter than stock bulbs. More expensive but worth it.

ashmarc - they look just like the regular bulb - plug n go

Awesome, thanks, less than $38.00 (before shipping), I'm buying one, I like the "purpleish" idea.

I tried the PIAA Xtreme White Plus anti-vibration and in all honesty did not see a difference in light output except for the light being whiter. There was no more usable light than the stock bulb. I had alot better results from the Philips Motovision bulb. And it was way cheaper.

I have a pair of Philips X-treme Power in the garage waiting to go in as soon as I start digging into the fairing.

I have been running PIAA's in everything for years. I have yet to have one go out and they are brighter than standard stock halogens.
