I liked the LED also but I bought a cheap one on eBay it was kinda falling apart. I did manage to fix it and it did put out a lot of light. I can also say, easy to carry a spare.
I put the daymaker in and also a lot of light and more focused and quiet.

I bought the LED replacement bulb just prior to Bikeweek this past year, one day when DentDude and I rode to J&P. It was a quick, cheap fix.... But I am going to go with the Daymaker ASAP.
That is the downside to the LED no spare option that is easily accessible on the road like the local Walmart. What kept me out of the market for awhile. But I just wasn't able to get anything else that last anyways.
I do however have about 4500 miles on it without issue. Will have another 1000+ by the end of the end of the month.
I don't do much night riding if I'm on a trip and it goes out well..ill find the nearest hotel, grab a six pack at the gas station and call it a day.
We gotta have about 30 guys running this light and haven't heard any failures will be interesting to see

Yes.. makes the bike get that modern appeal and so on. Beautiful light and for the price it's great!
My LED had a lot of mileage on it... Before I even installed it...lmao.
It went from Ormond Beach, to Flagler, to Daytona Shores, to Hershey Pennsylvania, to Ormond Beach...lol
Long story....

Right.. we r talk in bout bulbs.. not three wheelers..
Many Thanks for the Info.
Will try to get the daymaker for spare when I stay in Wichita.
Price of it is more or less?
The last what is to do before start Journey is searching a place for sleep one night,06/21 to 22
not wide away from Eisenhower Airport, a Guesthouse/ Motel.
Good Tipps are welcome.
Hope to see u all at unleashed.

The link D listed above has the exact link to the daymaker on Amazon for 49 bucks.. got mine 3 days after I ordered it..
Do you want me to buy you one and bring it? Just give me the $50 in Kansas?
Hard for you to order shit online and have it shipped to where you are staying.

For order at Amazon and delivery is my time in the States short - your offer would be super.
Important is to have a bill for pay customs, because want to bring some parts more to Germany.
Need parts for my Pit Bull and for my Pony I Need slottet brake disk Rotors and brake pads.
So I have to make customs invoice.
If you buy the daymaker for me, I will pick up and pay $ 50 at unleashed - Guaranteed.

Just stick the headlight in your luggage?
But I can probably print you a receipt from Amazon if you want.
I'll order it and haul it up for you. No problem doesn't take up much space and my pack is kinda big for a small 3 day weekend solo weekend trip anyways. Just ask Tapio haha, I stuck a queen size inflatable mattress in my pack just to fill it up last time I rode to ARK. I use it as a backrest makes 400 miles in a day easy.
You want the chrome backing of the black backing?
I personally like the chrome matches the bucket.

Chrome Looks much better.
Want to leave for spare clutch, Primary chain, some gaskets, oil for the baker rsd, throttle and Idle cable, the front light bulb,
maybe find a comfortable seat and and and.
For my Pony would like upgrade brake with slotted/drilled disk brake Rotors and better brakepads.Want to stay with my 17" rims.
A custom Control at Munich Airport with much metal in the luggage is, so I think, for shure.
Walk without declare will cost more, so I think, Taplo.

Well I'll get the headlight.
Regarding the rest of your list contact Derrick and Donna that is a pretty damn big list and they have it all and might be able to work out a delivery to the lodge for you or you can pick it up directly before you get back to the airport.
I'd send them the list now so they can set all the items aside for you ahead of time.
The rotors you have now are fine we don't have any other options for slotted or drilled and I don't think they are useful on an MC anyways as in reality the bike is light compared to trucks and cars. Shouldn't need to worry about heat dissipation on a chopper. Race bikes, yes.
