I want a hint of blue. I think it makes your headlight stick out in the crowd a bit more (day or night) which increases me being seen as well. So the 8k would be more blue... but by going to a 55w the color should wash out and get more white. That's the idea. Is my logic that I worked out with brian flawed?
ahh ok... looks like you thought it through... it's all good... just wondering the reasoning.

just bought set, thx for linky
interesting idea... though my kickstand switch is disabled as it can cause the motor to cut out when you go over fast bumpy terrain.

instead I found a headlight switch for another bike that will plug right into a harness I already have that will shut off the lights... PIMP
