DAY MAKER HEADLIGHTS.

[xlr8tion]

Glad FATBOY helped you out he's a good peep. I do not care what bug teeth said about him

320 each?

Thank goodness.

I will only have to sell one kidney

How did this bike pass DOT standard with its anemic lights?

And they look really great too! Broad track Harleybis the ONLY place to buy them!!

Daam nice, Rev!
Not a fairing man, but yours looks sweet!
Perhaps when I grow up and require more comfort . . .

Been running daymakers for a couple of years on both rockets...best upgrade you can do IMHO

I know there have been quit a few threads on the different light options - I cant pay $700 for 2 headlamps.
found these on Ebay for $89.99 ea - Chrome 5.75 5 3/4 Motorcycle Projector LED Light Bulb Headlight For Harley Day
Made by Genssi. I looked at company website & seem like a good company. for $179.98, what the hell right?

In the LED shots I also have them aimed lower which I may need to adjust after riding in dark tonite??

outside at nite (before I lowered them), they are brighter on dim than originals on bright.... by far!!!!
For the price - I LIKE EM!
I know they don't compare to the JW Speakers in performance, but they also don't compare in performance to the originals - Knowwhati'msayin?

If I had not already dropped $640.00 on the daymakers I would be checking it out. I am having a hard time excepting the fact that I pissed away that much money on just headlights.

I got the knock off replica of this one:

5 3/4" DAYMAKER Replacement Chrome Projector HID LED Light Bulb Headlight Motorcycle Harley 5.75"
Are those JW speaker brand?

• 1350LM for Low beam

• 1770LM for high beam (This is Effective Luminous Flux or actual usable light, not the 3000+ Raw lumens that the JW Speakers advertise) so I'm not sure how much actual difference there would be in the actual usable light. for the price difference, I would think there would be some though.

• 20/40 Watt

That is the same listed specs for the Genssi's that I got which say they are designed in US/made in China
Also I forgot to mention that the originals have 3 notches to fit the inner alignment ring. these had 4 and in different locations so I had to slot out with a dremmel 3 other notches and the light has a larger outside diameter so I spent quit a bit of time with an air grinder making the I.D. of the alignment ring larger. Whew

Anyway, I guess time will tell if the cheapo's I got will last..... but they are bright as ****!
I got the confidence to try these after seeing the post @ozrider put up on the ones from Ali Express - I just didn't want to order from China.... too long of a wait.
So, just more alternatives....... For us Po-boys

Not sure if they are HD branded or not but significantly cheaper than what I paid through HD dealer

It's a lovely looking mod but don't really ride much in the dark - purely for pleasure, so can't really be arsed couple with the cost etc.

Taking your pix from different distance locations kinda defeats the comparison purpose, no?
