2017 CB1100 EX Headlight
#1
Hi Gang,

I purchased the new CB1100 recently, and everything has been a blast.

Recently I installed a dart merlin flyscreen. Before this I have never rode the bike at night. The first time I rode at night I noticed it's actually very dark.

My headlight obviously works, with normal and high beam. I figured the headlight would be better in the newer version as it's LED I believe. The reason why I mentioned the dart flyscreen is because I noticed at night my bike lights road signs very well, but not the actual road.

I'm wondering a) did me installing the screen sign mess up the headlight in anyway? IE the headlight maybe damaged, or it's aimed higher than it should be, which I don't think so.

The other option is maybe the headlight is defective?

Anyone else with the newer CB1100 have any issues with the stock headlight at night?

Any recommendations for new headlight?
