    Hey guys, today we are going to compare and install cheap LED headlights on my KTM 300 XC. These bikes come pre-wired for the lights, but there is a need for a switch install and possibly little rewiring on the connector. In this video I will share detailed step by step KTM headlight installation. Let me know your thoughts.

    I bought the $55 light for my ktm 690 Enduro. Well worth the money. I don't understand how some of these light manufactures get away with charging hundreds for LEDs.

    The $70 light cut off is super clean and the light is uniform. I'd say having a uniform light with a clean cutoff is more important than raw brightness anyway.

    Great video. Biggest win for me is the Stock one. Simply because if you're far from home and the light dies you could get an H4 bulb at any gas station.
