BIG difference! That light is WAY better then the old one. I'll remember that company. One more thing: Best Headlight, I'll support you for supporting my pal Mike !
I just bought the same brand, but a different LED model. I’m replacing it because of the increased brightness compared to the current one that I run. I agree! HD should come with LED all around.
I’m always interested in these Amazon headlights. It looks nice, I just want to see how long it holds up. While I don’t plan on getting rid of my sport bike, I am looking to add either a superglide or wideglide to my garage. Lights like this are better than factory and reasonably priced, as long as they hold up.
April has a year or more on hers now and it made it thru her accident so I am not to skeptical but you never know. I put another 180 miles on it today,
First upgrade most the time is a better headlight. Amazed at how bad the lighting is on a new bike, especially the ones 20k and up.. cut costs where ever they can I guess
It’s so bright you needed sunglasses by the end lol. Awesome man, I’m gonna check out that brand and see if they make something for the ole vrod. It’s still using yellow halogen bulbs
Great looking light and I like the halo and that its black versus the chrome. My headlight has a halo as well and looks awesome. Great install and comparison in visibility💪🤘
Trying to install headlight on my 99 fatboy but having trouble fitting it unless I grind on one of the 3 slots to get it in, and putting on the rear signal lights got them new,but my brother in law cut the wires so I don't know what to do now
Great video bud! Thank you!. I just installed the same light on my 2014 Street Glide Special. I used the Y harness as well but my low beam is not working. Not sure if it is a problem with my switch or what? Can you offer some help/advice? Thank you in advance.
I would run a voltmeter on the harness to make sure your getting power on the low beam side. If anyone else you know uses a 7 in bulb you could test it in there bike, did your low beam work before changing bulbs?
@@RidingintheOzarks I pulled the codes and they are all light codes. I replaced all of the bulbs with 1156,1157, fog LED, and headlight LED. There shouldnt be a canbus issue.
@@AICD1999 I guess you could put the stock back in and see if it stops throwing the code. Nobody else has mentioned an issue like this. Hopefully it’s not a 2022 model year issue.
What about installing on a 2016 Sportster that has halogen and can code out when installing LED? Does it have the electronics to compensate for different amps so it doesn’t code out?
Great video... Quick question i have a 15 sg and the previous owner changed to led bulbs. It messed up the radio reception... Any issues with these causing interference?
Honestly I haven’t noticed any but I put a shorty antenna on, I know I can still get radio signal 30-40 miles away with my shorty but it wasn’t good for more than that before. I mostly listen to music downloaded on an iPod.
I had same thing but I had already upgraded to an led before and had to pull the stock connector pigtail off my old stock light. We’re you running stock light or led before?
I bought this same light for my 05 Electra Glide, and it interfered with my stereo. I don't know if that was because the bike didn't come with LED's, like all other Harley's from that time, but it created a loud buzz through the radio. I even tried a EMI filter but still had the interference. I have a 2017 now that has LED headlight but it could stand to be brighter! Was wondering if you noticed this on your bike?
@@RidingintheOzarks That's great man!! I'm gonna give these another shot on my Ultra. I just can't spend 5 to 6 hundred bucks for a dang headlight!! Appreciate that reply Brother!!
Been thinking of the same upgrade and had a question. I ride a 16 SGS and was thinking of putting driving lights on the front. What did you use on yours?
Gotcha. I didn't look close enough at the light. Guess my attention was on that unbelievably beautiful paint job. Since I started looking at upgrades to my factory headlight I noticed all the companies that offered the 7in LED also offered ones with the two driving lights. Most likely for the cruisers that already have them I had them on my old 02 Road King and loved them.
It Should, the headlight HD sells on their sight says is it fits '09-later Touring and Trike models (except Road Glide). If pick 2022 Street Glide then 16 it fits both so this tells me they have not made any significant changes...
I didn't have to because I was able to use my existing bracket and upon testing it was good, if you change brackets you will probably need to adjust it from my experience. There are adjustments for vertical and horizontal alignment and several articles on the internet explaining the best method to adjust it to get it close then ride it and adjust it if you feel it is needed still.
I understand but many of the P&A stuff at dealership is made in China or overseas. I think JW Speaker lights are one of the few made in the USA, it was one of the reasons I originally bought one.
@@RidingintheOzarks Right on, just amazes my that so many harley riders buy overpriced harley products from dealers made overseas. Just to have the logo. Just got my jw speaker headlight today. Sadly most people don't care where things are made.
What do you think of theis LED Headlight? Would you consider upgrading?
I will be putting mine in this weekend
I’ve been looking for a headlight for a couple weeks now you sold me, dude I’m on my way to Amazon
BIG difference!
That light is WAY better then the old one.
I'll remember that company.
One more thing: Best Headlight, I'll support you for supporting my pal Mike !
just installed this on a metric bike because of your video. Works great!!
Awesome glad your as happy with it as I am
When you said you had that headlight for five years, I knew it was time for an upgrade
I just bought the same brand, but a different LED model. I’m replacing it because of the increased brightness compared to the current one that I run. I agree! HD should come with LED all around.
I like the black look, and what a difference in the lighting, it's definitely a lot brighter, good job brother 💯👊🏼😎

Just fitted this headlight. I kept my Harley backing plate, so it was only 3 philips screws and done. Didn't have to reline the light.
Hope you like it!
Really good upgrade. I liked the chromed back, but for having that lumen increase, I like the black back now. ;)
First upgrade most the time is a better headlight. Amazed at how bad the lighting is on a new bike, especially the ones 20k and up.. cut costs where ever they can I guess
Yeah I think led should standard on all motorcycles at this point
The Wisamic halo LED on my Night Train cost me $55 on Amazon. It's as bright as the factory LED on my Pro Street Breakout.
It’s so bright you needed sunglasses by the end lol. Awesome man, I’m gonna check out that brand and see if they make something for the ole vrod. It’s still using yellow halogen bulbs
Finally good to see someone covering the fender. Thanks for the video.
Glad you liked it!
I just installed the same light in my 2018 SGS. Works great
If you have an older Glide, like my 2011, the light plugs right in. No adapter needed.
Great looking light and I like the halo and that its black versus the chrome. My headlight has a halo as well and looks awesome. Great install and comparison in visibility💪🤘
Holy 5hit BIG difference! Thanks for the sharing!
Awesome presentation. I'm on the road to purchase. Thanks, for helping me spend my bank account funds. Brother
I will install one now
Great improvement AND a great value. Thanks for the heads up!

I purchased it with out the halo, have not swapped out yet
Hope you are happy with it, it has been rock solid for me.
That lights look good. I’m running a factory Iight from 1984. It’s not real bright.
thanks for the video, I have one question thought , they claim it's anti scratch, how true is that? does it scratch easily? thanks
Mike . What do you think of the new swm storm breaker . That straight up copy of a real Harley pissed people of I think
I think Harley said it wasn’t cost effective to upgrade the air cooled sportster. Would like to see the price on this bike …
@@RidingintheOzarks that's news to me but now I got some input on it. 👍👍
Good morning Mike! That halo looks sweet with your paint job. Have a great weekend. How is the fuel tank coming along on the Excelsior Henderson?
I haven’t touched it yet, had do some maint on existing bikes then fix few things on DR200 we bought and just haven’t had time yet lol
@@RidingintheOzarks Understand that. Thanks to you I have that "She's too fat for me" song stuck in my head. 😂
Outstanding I’ve got to get one for my ultra
2 years in, are you still liking the light? Curious about it's longevity because I'm looking to upgrade mine
Still running it and still works great 👍🏻
@@RidingintheOzarks I installed mine and wow is it bright! Thanks for the review

I have a 2015 street glide special an I’m having the same problem
I installed one of these on my 2022 RK. It works great but I have a BCM code now that can clear but returns the next time the bike is turned on again.
Have you had anyone read the code yet?
@@RidingintheOzarks I pulled the codes and they are all light codes. I replaced all of the bulbs with 1156,1157, fog LED, and headlight LED. There shouldnt be a canbus issue.
@@AICD1999 I guess you could put the stock back in and see if it stops throwing the code. Nobody else has mentioned an issue like this. Hopefully it’s not a 2022 model year issue.
Dose the Low Beam stay on when you turn your High Beams on?
What about installing on a 2016 Sportster that has halogen and can code out when installing LED? Does it have the electronics to compensate for different amps so it doesn’t code out?
This headlight doesn't fit a sportster, they are 5.75 inches and this is a 7 inch.
i want this for my 05 Mean Streak, just dont know if it would fit. current is just a normal bulb and it gives a 1lane wide thin dim rectangle of light
That would be cool, sorry I don't know enough about Mean Streak to help but let me know if you figure it out.
Good video Mike
That was a huge difference between the 2 lights
I like the light and I also love the art on your bat wing
Thank you a local friend painted it. Look for plug Uglies custom on YT, FB and IG

I need one my lights are shit
So Indian lights are just as bad as HD factory?
@@RidingintheOzarks yep Shit. The new chiefs have the LED though
Been thinking of the same upgrade and had a question. I ride a 16 SGS and was thinking of putting driving lights on the front. What did you use on yours?
I don't have separate running lights but I replaced my front turns with Custom Dynamics Pro Beams. Is that what you asking about?

Thanks for sharing
Sick fairing bro
Thanks!
Hey shill how many watts is it?
45w on high, 30w on low
Love the new light bad ass
Thanks!
Have you experienced any interference with your radio reception with it's use.
I haven’t, I don’t use the radio often (I use Apple Music) but I do occasionally use the radio and never noticed a problem.
@@RidingintheOzarks Thanks Mike. I'll give it a try.
@@thomascoach2255 great, if you do have issues let me know so I can share that if someone else ask.
new one looks heaps better
How does this compare to the sunpie light anyone try both
I haven’t so I can’t say
would it fit the 2022 streetglide st?

What was your old LED light?
JW speaker

If I only could convince riders to riders to buy leathers from Fox Creek leathers. American made.
