I've looked through some of the threads and noticed most of the discussion on headlights involves replacing the standard, halogen bulbs/headlights with LED or HID. I just completed a project on Skunk Ryder's SERG on replacing the stock headlights (which were junk, btw) with the new, Daymaker HD LED's. What a difference! Pardon the pun but it's like night and day. Rode with him most of the day this past Saturday and really liked the look. He was pleased with being noticed better in the day and actually seeing at night. That was the best option for his bike. I really like the LED look but just don't want to spend $300 ($550 for the MoCo) yet on Ginger.
The thing is, I really like the light spread on my stock SESG dual bulb headlight. I've adjusted it to my liking and the light spread is great. However, the bulbs just don't shine bright enough for me. I've had higher wattage bulbs on other bikes but not recently. As I get older, my eyesight at night has deminished so more light is nice. This post is to get some opinions on upgrading the halogen bulbs in my stock headlights. Again, don't want to go HID or LED at this point. Looked at PIAA, Sylvania, Phillips, GE (which makes the stock high beam bulb) but what have others here on the forum used? What kind of performance on what was chosen?
