Just so the “old fart” can sleep better tonight, I just got back from a night “test ride” with the new Vision X headlight installed. Also replaced running lights with LED bulbs. I followed my wife in her car, running thru all lighting modes. We then did a head on passing on a dark road several times. . Also followed her at different distances. Wife says lights are bright but not.blinding— until putting high beam on. I think we are good to go. My neighbor and best riding buddy just ordered one for his Ultra Limited. So that will be two of us with properly adjusted military grade landing lights.  LOL

Given his significantly greater experience in the industry than any of us and the quality of his insights (better than most of us) I can't imagine Jerry actually losing any sleep over anything (anything) any of us (any one of us) might say or respond with.  I did read an entirely plausible insight and all too commonly seen issue that he chose to take time to share.  Good to see an astute reaction was taken and you tested things out in the field to make sure his shared concern wasn't your practical issue.

Agree 100%.  Just having a little fun with the “old fart”. (His words, not mine).

Next to Neal and JC; and Gary and Marty and Jim (and any other moderators I'm not thinking of right now to suck up to) I've learned more from Jerry than very likely anyone else here  :2vrolijk_21: :drink: .

If the sun is out, my high beam is on.....my rule of thumb.

CVO's in low beam with passing lamps on are tough to see on a sunny day.
