LED Headlight Upgrade

[Peddlin' Slow_imp]

Finally got a chance to take a night photo. Pictures do not do the light justice, really happy with this setup.

Stock


Motodemic LED


I still need to play with the aiming a little bit. I think my stock light was low and I have the LED just a little high.

If that was high beam. Agree the stock headlight was way too low. That's about where my low beam hits with my highbeam adjusted for the night time riding I do and believe my high beam would be easily hit midway up that fence.

Both are low beam. Im no photographer and taking these photos at night proved to be difficult. I wouldn't say these are a scientific comparison.

Here is a high beam photo I grabbed, unfortunately it was in a different spot.

I see 3 black holes on the road surface. If you bring the headlight lower, will the holes disappear?

Edit:
One thing I learned about glass refractors:


is that it's 70% efficient (30% light energy is lost through transmission), whereas light that's bounced off of a reflector (w/ 99% reflective surface) and then passed through a clear lens (like our CB1100 headlight) is 90% efficient. Efficiency=lumens outside the headlight / lumens from the light source (light bulb). But my eyes have deteriorated over the years, I can't tell the difference, to be honest....

Now that you point that out in the photo I see it but I dont really see those in real world.
