    I installed the SoCal LED’s more to BE SEEN by others during the day than for me to see better at night.
    I love them,

    That would cause trouble where I am at. The number of lights illuminated is illegal in the U.S. Someone might swerve coming at you or slam on their brakes when you are behind. Just pisses people off. Not something you would want to do on a motorcycle.

    Thanks and That’s the point!

    Point well taken but of course you realize the hi beams are on in the pic, and the lowers cannot be seen when you are behind someone.
    And since I have a Goldwing converted to F6B I’m able to raise or lower the light beam on the fly so not to blind on coming traffic or those I’m behind. Like I said it’s more for daytime driving than night and I’m sure most can agree they have had more close calls during the day than night. (I know because we ride more in the day)
