I've looked through many threads but haven't seen any headlight upgrades. I ride a lot at night since the daytime summer heat where I normally ride is almost unbearable.

Has anyone done something to upgrade the stock headlights? Anyone swap out the stock lights with something like the Daymakers from a Harley? I am not sure I want to wire in a set of Denalis or similar. Navigator did have some nice brackets made for his.

Looking for options that others have used.
 
Thanks for the quick reply. There is always a point of diminishing returns. At the same time, I don't mind spending on quality as sometimes the extra improvement in performance might be worth it. So I'd consider both and anyone's experience with them.
 
i have one daymaker $400 (a world of difference) and a chinesse $50 and with that combo i can see at night.
 
When I had the Roadster I bought these...

Eagle Lights 5 3/4" Black Gen 3 LED Projection Headlight - Lifetime Warranty | eBay

EAGLE LIGHTS QUALITY - The original Eagle Lights 5 3/4" LED headlight. The Eagle Lights 8900 headlight uses high quality polycarbonate lens construction for extra durability and heat treated die-cast aluminum for the body.
www.ebay.com

The difference between those and stock was... "night and day." Inferior to more expensive options? Maybe- but maybe not.
One of them got foggy and after two or more years the company sent me a new one. I was very satisfied with them. According to reviews..

Thanks, I had actually been looking at these. They are cheap enough to try and if they are good enough, no need to spend more money. I've seen a fair amount of complaints about the JW's not having a bright enough low beam and that the adaptive function can be a little slow to adapt. Quite a few comments about the light quality is good but the output could be better.

I could always buy 1 of each and split the difference.
