The new JW Evo 2 is better than any other LED light produced so far and is far superior to the Harley Daymaker and costs $350.00 with lifetime warranty. I don't know if it will beat an old Bosch 0 301 600 118 - ECE Motorcycle lamp (LHD) with Osram Silver star H4 bulbs in the corners.

I'm now leaning towards the JW Speaker 8700 Evolution 2 Round 7" LED Headlight - Black for my 14 SGS, has anyone installed one of these yet. Do you need the wiring harness adapter. Also where is a good place to buy one.

Actually in my opinion the EVO is a better and brighter light output...
The EVO 2 has those gray areas in them
There's another video out there that I saw that shows those gray areas in front of the bike
Also the EVO is brighter when he (above) shines the EVO into the EVO 2
If the EVO 2 was better then don't you think that the EVO light would have been lost in the EVO 2?
Personally I thought so
I'm not sure the new design is better then the older design
But hey each to there own...

Yep, I have both. They may not be exact but I can't tell a difference.
