Best LED headlight

I'm not having any issues with radio and JW Speaker. I'm running and external short antenna.
I have an LED low beam and its a vast improvement over halogen. I left the halogen high beam. you should look into VLeds.com https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=vleds
I went with replacing the OEM bulbs with LED, I used SiriusLED's https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00K61CG5U/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
They are much better than the stock bulbs, and for $60 for two they are a great deal. I've had them for about a year now, no issues. They fit just like the regular bulb, takes two seconds to swap them.

Yes I installed it, I am getting static in the FM radio reception but the light looks so good and the light output is amazing so I"m keeping it. I don't listen to the FM radio anyway, Pandora or Iheart radio so I'm good with it. I ride with some friends who have Harley day makers and this light blows them away in terms of day visibility and night vision. Much whiter/brighter light than the $575 Harley light. Harley has two versions of the projector day maker now, the one I have is the same as the new Harley model not the first version.
Sweet. Any chance you could get some pics? I have Dynamic Ringz Turn signals and I'm wanting to see if the color matches. The only lights I've seen that do is the Daymaker, Truck Lite and Custom Dynamics Tru Beam.
Sounds good. When you get a chance if you don't mind it would be nice to see the light on the bike as well as a couple beam output shots either on the road or against a wall. I know I would greatly appreciate it and I'm sure others would as well!
And they look like they will color match the Custom Dynamics Ringz turn signals color wise. $60 seems like a no brainer here

Here's a really good comparison of the Truck-lite and the jw speaker. You really do get what you pay for with LEDs. http://bogiesreviews.webs.com/Review - Phase 7 LED Headlights & Passing Lamps.pdf
FYI I have the fuel moto LEDs for my dual halogen and passing lamps. The main headlight floods out quite a bit and isn't focused as well as with a halogen bulb. The passing lamps are almost worse, they light up the Damn trees and really don't cast much light on the road. With that said, the headlight does emit more light and helps light up the reload but since it doesn't project as it should and instead floods everything in front of the bike, it's not as effective as it should be. On the plus side, it makes the front of my bike brighter and look larger which is good for safety, but for visibility I'm less than impressed.
This also brings up a topic which I understand but ignore endlessly : focused beam lamps cannot effectively be retrofitted!

I put the eagle lights 8700 gen 2 on my bike, I love it but I get radio interference, do you get any on your bike?
