Why can't we get LED Headlights?
Rather than figuring out where to squeeze in the ballast and wiring I'd luv to get an LED headlight!
Hey Harley's got 'em, though I wouldn't like to shell out $525

I've always wondered why there aren't a ton of projector LED setups for sport bikes and cars these days. I know dissipation is an issue, but still.
Good LEDs are getting cheaper all the time, too. A guy I work with is picking me up a nice 220 lumen LED flashlight this weekend. It's only like $20 w/ batteries and it will light a person up at like 150yrds. It also has 3 power settings and it's adjustable for wide angle. All while being like 4" long and 1" in diameter.
It seems like whatever issues LEDs have would be ironed out by now.They make a ton of light with little power.
