I don't ride at night. Even if I did, I would not spend $500 for a headlight.

Aprox $525 for headlight...$900 for passing lamps and housings...$450 for custom install of BAL on 2010 SG...all money well spent.

My warranty expires in 1 week. I need any extra money to keep it running.

Train, are u talking about the 7" LED Trucklite? If so, do you like it better? I've been watching it on E-Bay.

That's the one. I got the headlamp from Custom Dynamics, the passing lamps (which were advertised as Kury but came in Trucklite boxes, same difference) from Phat Performance. I haven't used the Harley/JL lights, but given the reviews I'll take the lower price and the better daytime visibility.

I have the Kuryakyn 7" LED Truck-Lite. I am very happy with it. Veegee, If you buy one,
buy it from BK Rider. Make sure you call them and order it over the phone and they knock off an additional 10% off their E-Bay price. I got mine for $ 234.00 with free shipping. Their number is 1-800-349-3510.

I have been really thinking about that trucklite headlight. That is what Kury sells correct?

EDIT -Never mind. Seems it was answered while I was typing.

Another thing to consider is a LED light will draw a lot less amps than conventional lights/accessories, so the electrical wont have to work as hard. Not to hijack the thread but has anyone heard of that european headlight bucketFOR Roadglides? I understand it makes for twice the light as the oem. You batwingers got off cheap, we have to buy 2 light systems.
