    Thank you for showing what the beam actually looks like at night, from the riders perspective. (THE MOST IMPORTANT PART)
    ALL of these other "influencer" channels just show install and then they run their mouths more 20 minutes. "I got this thing for free, but I'm not "sponsored", and I love it even though I don't have any real experience."

      @@kidmoto22 right on man. I mean the low beam would at least cover the width of a lane and maybe a little of the shoulder? Or how might you describe it. Same with the high. I’m just curious on the road coverage at night in your experience. Sometimes the most sketchy things come from the shoulder into the road in the dead of night.
      Any other feedback is much appreciated

    Seriously, do you get flashed by other drivers, a lot? The beam pattern looks to be pointed directly where mirrors and the eyes of drivers, in on coming vehicles. Thanks by the way! Great night time comparison

      Honestly I’ve never been flashed. That’s not to say that I should have been. The other part is living where I live the riding season is also filled with LONG days of sunlight…by mid June we have light until 1030 at night.

      @@adminadmin9997 It’s a plug and play light so there’s not any cutting and wiring. If your running a faring you might need a headlight block to move the light forward to run flush with the front of the faring and yes likely the smaller size. I’ve had great luck with customer service so it’s too bad that you’ve not had a good experience.

    I wonder if the Letric co. Is as bright. I dont understand why the Custom Dynamics probeam is $500 while it only offers 800 lumens on low, and yours and the Letric co offers over 3200 lumens on low and its more than half the price

    • @kidmoto22
      @kidmoto22  Місяць тому

      My guess is that Custom Dynamics are making lights that are completely “road compliant”. I don’t know about the Letric lights but the moons lights do have a disclaimer on the packaging that they are for off road use. Since motorcycles only have one light it’s not really cracked down on. I’ve been hearing that this may become an issue in the future.
