    Due to this video, I purchased this set up. I have an '08 Road King Classic. My headlight burnt out and I wanted to upgrade. That same day you put out this video. I went ahead and ordered them and got them in two days. Mine were plug and play. Man the difference these make compaired to the original lighting. Thank you for the videos. Keep it up man

    Those butt connectors actually have a shrink wrap type insulation on them. Heat 'em up and they'll seal your connections right up 👍
    I love the ones I have. Plenty bright!

    I did the hogzworkz leds for my 98 roadking has the same setup as those and made a tremendous difference. Tip is to aim ur passing lights a little bit to the left and right and it really helps light up the ditch and tree lines for any animals that may run out in front of u👍. I paid 220.00 for my kit fyi...

      Since these are LEDs do you need to install a resistor so your battery dont die? Or just plug and play?

    Got the sunpie daymaker (same as harleys daymaker) on all my hd's. Such a difference i can see so well during my 5am commute. Once you put those daymakers in you wont wanna go back to halogen. ( yours have same patern as the daymaker)

    I Love mine. The group I ride with make me lead at night. I even light up the signs during the day on a sunny day. Nice video I did change the wiring with a kit so my passing lamps stay on with the high beam allows me to turn them on and off at the switch on the dash.

    • @SaddleTrampTV
      @SaddleTrampTV  3 роки тому +2

      If it weren't for the guy riding behind me into Tampa with the daymaker headlight, I wouldn't have been able to see much. That's what got me thinking.

  • @twatson6252
    @twatson6252 3 роки тому +8

    I have tried the led headlight what I don't like is the highbeams. I have yet to try one that throws a beam higher and farther down the road like the old bulb style. The ones I tried had a hell of a lot better low beam but switching to high beam was just like blinking your eyes and nothing really changing in the beam pattern. If this does please include it in your review thanks.

    I have a single headlamp on my 2006 Fat Boy. I bought a led replacement light that is just a 3-sided little stick light and it also works great. Led is awesome! The first one I bought was for my Sportster and the 2nd one was basically the same light. Cheap too.

    After I did a daymaker headlight on my sporty I will never go back. The way they light up a perfect bowl shape across the road. I bought a amazon one for the sporty because I wanted to keep the HD one for my Dyna and it still about as bright as the HD one.

    I think you did a good job. For me personally, I always walk up to the Harley counter at the dealer. And have them instal it. That way it's the best light. And they touched it last. But to each their own. Having proper lighting is key.

    I converted my 73 XLCH to all LED and I had to replace the flasher unit with one that had a resister built in and it is adjustable to increase or decrease resistance for the signals. I converted my FLSTF to all LED including the signals and I put in a special resister from J&P cycles. I converted to LED to save electricity especially on the Ironhead.

    Well done, Corey.
    Ain't nothing worse than a headlight which does not light up bright enough.
    I once used to have a Suzuki DR 750Big. U know, a huge single cylinder adventure bike from the 80ies. The bike was great and able to take real punishment, but its headlight was not even a bad joke. Sometimes had the impression that if I had put a candle in there it might have even been better.
    So, weak headlights are a pain in the ass for sure.
    Great u found a better one for your E-glide.
    It suits it well, I gotta say👍.

  • @BillyBlaze7
    @BillyBlaze7 3 роки тому +3

    so happy for you bro, that frosty light you had was worrying me some.
    LED lighting is the way to go for sure. on the cheapo versions the usual suspects are fitment issues and sealing issues. usually more in humid places, so if you skate past the humid issues you should be golden.
    Another benefit of running LED lighting is a greatly reduced electrical draw on your charging system.
    I usually replace all the regular lighting on my bikes to have all led's.
    Really happy you got the lights changed and the cost was unbeatable :-)

If you start having problems it will be because those plier joints , they work in a pinch but a better connection is needed for the long haul . Peace Brother . Your a blessing

    The other thing you could’ve done other than cut those passing light connectors off and splice them together was just attach spade connectors to the new passing lights adapter wires and then simply plug them together with the factory plugs for the passing lights. Although you’ll probably never do it, you can return everything to factory original
