Went for a first night ride. I couldnt see SH_T. Gots to be a better light/system for these dino's.

I dont feel that the electrical system is to fault as the volt meter readings are very good and at spec and better. Light burns bright at any RPM and dosent dim.

Made me feel nervous....as can people see me comming? Cause I cant see that object in the road.

Plugs in just like origional light bulb,Ive always figured if they can survive the abuse Ive subjected them to in dump trucks and 4x4s over the years theyre plenty stout for a bike.
Ive used them in all my bikes over the years without mechanical issues. B)
