Not sure what bike he has, but my SGS came with the dual halogen light. You would think they would have put the LED on it to start, but no, gotta make some more moolah.

I have read on here that the Sylvania Silverstar Zenon Fueled xZe is a very good bulb. Might want to check it out.

I went with the HID lights from solcalmotogear.com. Way brighter and a 1/3 the price of the LED's.

sylvania silver star is a good bright light, but they blow the low beam element in under 1500 miles. i've put them on 4 bikes and they all do it so i know its not a bad voltage regulator either.

Have an older Ultra and have been running one of the PIAA Xtreme White a little over a year. Seems to last better than the SilverStar's.
