Default Flush LED, Hotbodies, Competition Werks, Proton???

I am looking at a few different frontflush mount LED's for my 06 cbr1000rr and am wonder how bright the Hotbodies are. Since they drop down in the recess of the fairing, I would think they would be hard to see from the front at daytime unless they were very bright.
The others are Proton and Competition Werks. Both of these fit in the recess but protrude out a little making them easier to see from all angles. I definitely favor their designbut the thing is, they are more than double the price of the Hotbodies. $80-90.00 VS $35.00 for the Hotbodies.

Thanks again
Roach

Default RE: Flush LED, Hotbodies, are they bright enough?

Thanks compulady. Kinda what I was expecting for the Hotbodies. I think I will get the Protons or Competition Werks. I think they will offer a bit more visibility from the front.

Later

I got the Protons. They are pretty bright in the day light. As for the frontal visibility they do not overly impress me even though they are much more visible then any other flush mounts I have seen. At night, they are ridiculously bright! I have got mine set up on the -strobe- mode so they flicker really fast while the turn signal is blinking. It really gets peoples attention! The nice thing about them is there is no need to mess with resistors or a relay unless you have LEDs for rear signals as well. Installation was a breeze and they look like they are built really damn strong. The only negative thing I have to say about them are the fact they cost almost $100 but they were worth it![/align]
