Dear Jimmy,

Most of the guys have given you the benefit of their personal opinion, but few responded as you asked with pictures.
Here is my bike with Motolights - the headlights are Phase 7 Trucklites from Harbour Freight.

As to whether they detract from the HD look, well, you decide.
Why you don't see many of them around? They ARE damned pricey!

They don't "bounce around" unless its a really bad road, and even then, unless aiming quite high, should not antagonize other motorists, except for the odd "grumpy old fart", and those are the sort that you want to notice you  ;) right? After all, if you piz them off, they must have seen you  ;D

The new 14 hd headlight has both beams looking like they are the same size.. Is that supposed to be an improvement over the older headlights?    :nixweiss:

Well I got the custom dynamics cool magic lights installed today. The mounts were a little bit of a pain because of all the adjustments. It was hard to tighten one without moving another, just took some patience. I will let yall know what the light output is like after driving tonight.

T Roy - thanks for taking the time to post those pictures. I've been thinking about buying a pair of the CDs myself; and am very interested in your impression after using them in both day and night riding.

Well I have ride a couple of days with the cool magic lights and I am pleased. A buddy of mine says they are very visible during the day and catch your eye. At night they light up an area about 15 to 20 feet in front of the bike that was hard to see before through my tinted shield. Now I can see the same through the shield day or night :bananarock:
