MightyMike Posted January 7, 2014 Author Posted January 7, 2014 Yes or Harley Davidson LEDs. Not sure if these are the same product. The first LED I saw in person was on a HD at a local car/bike gathering.
xcarguy Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I like it. If you make it work, I'm gonna copy you.
rikker Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) I guess it depends how often you drive in the dark, for most it is not a priority, unless of course you want more daytime viz. I like the later 5.75" 4 barrel over the pepper pot ones, they remind me of the plastic carpet protector shield I have my office chair on right now. Edited January 7, 2014 by rikker

jimrankin Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Seems that most people don't run into "educated" law enforcement officers but if you might then make sure whatever you buy has a DOT stamp or you can get cited for illegal equipment. I had to install a set of DOT legal lights to pass for registration. Some states ban HID lights even with a DOT stamp unless you have the self leveling device factory cars need to use them. Seems that they are so bright that they can blind oncoming traffic if they are allowed to aim too high by changing the ride attitude of the car. That said, the LED lights look like a really good option, both for less power draw and because my incandescent bulbs seem to not like the shock from bumps and berms. Came home from a long ride after dark New Years Day by the light of one headlight again :-).
