Putting a HD LED headlight on my 2011 Street Glide, and I'm concerned about not being able to see well in corners.

Going to get some LED Motolights to help the problem, but am not sure if I should get the standard LED's or the new, Ultra Bright LED bulbs.

I like the idea of brighter/better bulbs, but am afraid it might be obscene looking when lit up.

Does anyone have any experience with these lights?

Thanks

The brighter the better in my experience. I use custom dynamics sun spots in my passing lamps and they will light up the road, especially in the day time when the cages really have a hard time seeing you.

As long as the light color temperature is the same (I'm pretty sure it's 6000 K), I'd go for the brighter ones and just make sure they are aimed properly, along with the headlight assembly.  The more light the better, IMO.
