Statussymbol Posted August 23, 2017 #1 Posted August 23, 2017 So on my way to work tonight I stopped on a nice flat road and took these...... was not flashed a single time. Plus very little road sign glare on yellow only. white is good to go. Low beam lit up the ditches perfectly, and high beam was a little lacking in litghing up the ditches and a little too high in the trees but acceptable.
leo3wheel Posted August 23, 2017 #2 Posted August 23, 2017 Looks like my Broview. Not sure why I get flashes sometimes. We are set the same. I know LED's are much more white. Oh well, drive nearly always during the day. Love my LED headlight, and could drive on low beam all the time. Enjoy!

Not a whole lot of room behind light bucket for an LED with a fan after mounting the ballast. You're right on being able to drive with just the Low beam on. The only thing I could not do is replace the rubber boot back on around the bulb housing without splitting it, figured I'd ride without it and keep it if I ever decide to run with a reg bulb anyway.
baylensman Posted August 23, 2017 #4 Posted August 23, 2017 My Broview looks the same and I have the same little issue. Not enough back scatter on HI. It would be perfect if the HI was the same as the LOW but just Higher! Well duh! You know what I mean.
leo3wheel Posted August 23, 2017 #5 Posted August 23, 2017 Right now, headlight beam shines straight ahead. Instead of lowering the beam, could direct it towards the right shoulder. Not going to happen right now.

leo3wheel Posted August 24, 2017 #7 Posted August 24, 2017 Have to open up fairing. There is an adjustment bolt with hex head and Philips slot for adjusting headlight beam left and right.
videoarizona Posted August 25, 2017 #8 Posted August 25, 2017 That's what I'm going to do when I get back to my bike. Up a touch so high beam reaches out better then right a touch to keep from blinding people coming my way. I initially had mine to high...the road wasn't that bright on low beam. Thanks for the pictures....Helps me see what these LEDs can do. I have the Broview.
bongobobny Posted August 25, 2017 #9 Posted August 25, 2017 Not sure what your State's requirement is but here in NY I believe it is 1" lower at 25 feet...

That is a huge difference from my original equipment headlight. Still trying to decide if I'm going to go with the dedicated LED's or just the bulb. Seeing these photos though it looks like a big improvement either way.

VentureFar Posted April 25, 2018 #12 Posted April 25, 2018 Maybe I missed this part. What exact led are you running? Lighting is excellent. I have two 25w led mounted on my mirror stalks on a separate switch. I can ride 75 in pitch black and see to stop. I bought an led replacement but then realized I would need to spend another $100 on the kisan headlight modulator. I won’t ride without it. Now if I had @cowpuc smile I wouldn’t need a headlight modulator [emoji112] VentureFar.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
