• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

120W driving lights, Amazon Prime might have limited time

Grandpot, just the kind of details I needed, I bet the GY-18 is the same on my '13, but if not I think I can find the correct one.

This is the way Twisted Throttle recommends wiring their Denali driving lights, and when I have time I'm going to go back and do that. Meanwhile, I've got an on/off switch, PLUS with my lights mounted high and pointed somewhat downward, it's going to be less of an issue when I do happen upon oncoming traffic out on a rural road late at night.

I have a concern with folks who mount driving lights on their A-arms because they are going to have to aim them somewhat up in order to throw light down the road; in that case, tying the lights into the high beam circuit is the only way to go, I think.
 
Pete, After our recent foray on dirt roads in the NW Angle of MN, and off the Cherohala Skyway to Murphy, NC I am leaning more to the driving lights being inside of front fender mounted like Tric LED does with theirs. We were travelling on some very dark unlit dirt roads that had some tight turns, we were slowing down often due to overdriving the LED head and fog lights that pointed where the nose pointed versus where the wheels were pointing in the really tight sections, though that probably saved our lives.....;)

David, I'm sure you have looked at all the variables and decided what works best for you. I'm concerned about the newbies who may not understand this issue and just think adding an eye-blistering amount of light anywhere on their bike is a good idea.
