have ya done the eastern beaver relay mod?..that makes 'em at least twice as bright in and of itself..

+1 on the headlight relay mod. That makes the most difference in making them brighter.

I also use Sylvania Silver Stars.

Thanks Guys. You the best.
Do I just ask for an EB relay... And which relay on the bike is the headlight relay? Or am I asking to much. Lol.

+1 on that! It'll also prevent ignition switch damage from all the current that draws through the switch to power the lights...most of us learned the hard way. :sad:

EB kit is really essential.. feel the wiring going to your ignition switch( when the bike is running) without the EB kit, it gets dam hot!! this usually ends up f'kin up the solder in the ignition barrel.
Will take ya around an hour ( without rushing) to fit the kit . Easily done, just follow the instructions. Easiest fitment involves junking the little parking light bulbs.

Hey, Adam - Do you own a laptop? If so, I'll buy the kit, too and we can have an install party!:alcy:
