Is there a link that doesn't ask for a User & Password?
Any idea what I would use for my 03 SERK?
I am wanting to keep it close to Original, which means "No Passing Lights", but I could use a better headlight. Old eyes getting tired at night.

Cheers

I just had to do it! 2 each 6000K HID Xenons on my SESG3. One for LOW beam and an additional for HIGH beam. You can see into tomorrow with those boys - cost $160.

The HIDs conversion from XENONLINK.com is about 75.00 to 119.00 now this is for the headlight only. You do the math for what little difference that has been discussed in the the visibility of the two. The XENONLINK is a plug and play. Have been using it since 08 with no complaints. That is using the 6000 Kelvin.

Just looking for the Headlight Only. Do you recall which XenoLink Kit you bought??

Many Thanks

Just installed the HARLEY LED HEADLIGHT, it is awesome, and well worth the cost.

My initial thought was to run without passing lamps if possible.
It seems to be so much more light, but as you suggest is there ever enough?
My other thought was possibly to add the LED MOTOLIGHTS.
Now LED PASSING LAMP VS. LED MOTOLIGHTS?

You've already got the expensive headlight, might as well get the passing lamps that match.  jmho.  spyder

I changed over from the OE HID on my '08 FLHRSE4 to the LED (HD) and am pleased with the performance/illumination. Yes, its pricey but I did save a few bucks buying it slightly discounted at $435 (from a HD dealer via eBay). No mods needed, out with the old, in with the new.

I have the LED version. It's very bright and focused with a nice pattern running left and right on the road.

There is a great photo comparison on this thread by Jeff (Envithyx) that convinced me and have been very pleased with the LEDs ever since.
