Headlight Upgrade
Well the eyes aren't what they used to be and I still end up riding at night quite a bit so I'm trying to decide on a better headlight. I'm sure allot of folks will recommend an LED but I just can't get past the look and have a couple of friends that complain about seeing around curves with them. I may still go that route but I'm considering the HID kit from Socalmotogear and the Cibie lens with the Osram Ralleye 70/65 bulb from Daniel Stern Lighting. Opinions in older threads are all over the place, so I'm hoping for more updated, long term opinions from those who have tried these options.

I just installed the HD reflector LED, I really like the look, since this lamp uses the reflector instead of the projector I am hoping the beam is alittle wider. to cold to try out yet. I like the fact that it doesn't stick out of the stock ring.

That's a good looking light, looks like a HD version of the Truck-Lite. It looks like a good compromise of form and function. I assume the light output is similar to the TL and the fact that it doesn't stick out like the TL is definitely a plus.
