After researching on line and watching customer videos on u tube, I discovered a lot to do with the effectiveness of the LED bulb was based on the type of reflector in the headlight bucket. I also noticed the orientation of the reflector in the actual LED bulb may impact how the light casts as well. While the overall brightness was usually pretty good, the majority of the time people were less satisfied with the spread of the beam. I ended up going with the tried and true option and upgraded to the Piaa 70456 Extreme White Plus Anti Vibration bulb. It's an H4 Halogen bulb with stock 60/55 wattage. It's identical fitment and wattage to our stock H4 bulbs. It claims to have measured effectiveness of a 100/110 watt bulb, "providing a cool white light output that increases color recognition, depth perception and contrast over our stock headlamps." The tip of the bulb has a blue glare defector on it vs our stockers have grey. As with everything, I'll hold onto the stock bulb for back up. Snow up here in New England has kept me from road testing, however, I think it will make me more visible to oncoming traffic. Before and after photos posted. tI was at my Honda dealers today ordering my Select saddlebags and a pair of RLETS when I spied this same front fender on an original, pristine 1976 CB750 sitting in the showroom. The dealer said it would be there (not for sale) until the building fell down. But knowing him, he'll sell it for the right price.
