Riding my bike in the dark has seemed sketchy since I bought it. The headlights just seemed weak to me. I read a couple threads on this forum and decided to purchase a couple LED bulbs for my low light from Cyclops Adventure sports.
Opening the box they look like quality.
The install could not be easier. I didn't even have to remove any fairings. Put the bike on the center stand and turned the handle bars to access the bulbs. They fit directly in the stock socket and plug into the harness with no modifications needed. The fan on the back of the bulb has plenty of clearance. I attached the igniter box to the side of the fairing with some sticky Velcro. The rest of the wires were tie wrapped out of the way. The only thing I'm not happy with is that the connector is now located in an area that may be open to the elements thru a gap in the fairings. When ever I have a legit reason to remove them I will look for a better place to route everything.
The pic doesn't really do it justice. The new LED is on the right and the standard halogen is on the left. The light is bright and crisp white. Each bulb puts out 4000 lumens. I'm not sure what stock is but seat of the pants is a HUGE difference.
Total was about $130 for both. Install takes about 30 minutes. I highly recommend this mod to anyone rocking the Non-S version DVT.
