LED's will give off a brighter light making you more visible however high beam distance down the road is limited, all depends on whether you riding is city or country.

I purchased some off JF3000 here on OzSTOC....very happy with the low beam result. They cut off nicely and have a good spread until the Darla's pick up where the ST Headlights leave off in width.

To have the low beam set just right it has the High beam to high for my preference......but then you cannot see the H4 High beam through the Light Tech spreads and the Krista spots....so for me no loss.

I lost count of the amount of times I had to brake or move around on the road for grass hoppers last night.


cheers

The Forums are full of complaints about the roos which seem to have suddenly become intolerable.  A combination of a good wet leading to over-breeding, followed by a prolonged drought causing the mobs to converge on the roads in search of green pick along the table-drains and verges.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Green Pick...what's that ???

The Roo's down here have learnt to replace that with roadside roughage.....rocks, dirt, bits of old tyre cases  ;-*
