If you go back two or three pages, Eastern Performance had a post offering $199.00 for the LED Trucklite or $369.00 for Headlight and driving lights. Much cheaper than the HD LED.

I'm running this combination on my RK. Me and my buddy swapped bikes once and the LED headlight and passing lamps on the RK were very outstanding in the daytime in my mirrors. Very bright white.

bought front and rear running and head lights

for my SG. If you are driving at night in deer country, they are indispensable. Worth the big bucks. I got the rear luggage rack and bag racks with leds.

For half a mile down the road I see street lights. The view is like riding at day time. Spend the money you won’t be sad you did. Best upgrade and safety feature I have made on my scooter.

This is why I have not traded my SG for a newer model. I love those lights and I would lose a lot of bucks on trade. I will rebuild the motor before I trade.

If I rode much at night I'd get some. Especially in deer country...May seem like a waste of money....until it saves your a$$ once or twice....

I just picked up a reflector LED with LED halo off of ebay for a deal ($195). it should be here tomorrow. Supposed to be the same as Trucklight (without gap issues) and HD reflector style as I don't like the appearance or price of the HD daymaker (though the road glide style is alot better looking than the SG style, i must say).

I prefer HID lamps for the headlight over LED. HD Daymaker is way over priced and does not really put out superior light over a HID. Check out SoCalMotoGear if interested in HID. The passing lamps they use a LED depending on the type of passing lamp you have.
