Are there any good H4 LEDs that work well with our headlight reflector?

Lots of LED headlight bulbs out there with high output, but are there any that have the LEDs placed properly to produce a decent light pattern with a well-defined low-beam cutoff line? I don’t need super high output; I just want to know I’m not blinding oncoming drivers.

Check these out from Cyclemax. They're really good LED bulbs and are reasonably priced.

Closest one I've found is the Rivco offering; bought one from them at one of the IMS events in Cleveland several years back. Even still, I ran incandescent bulbs in the spots with my LED headlight for better fill lighting.

Ran across a set of Daymaker spots at last year's Mid Ohio Vintage Days for a price I simply couldn't refuse. That evening I found a matching headlight unit (black colored) on FleaBay and made 'im an offer...

Used Josh's bracket to install the headlight. I had to design EMI suppressor circuitry for both spots and headlight unit (search the 1500 Tech section for my posts on the subject).

The above being said, I simply won't go back to anything else up front - incandescent, LED or HID alike - and will probably convert both taillight and turn signals to LEDs in the near future.

I got a black daymaker too. Blegghh  ... but it is still a good light. I used the Josh bracket too. And, after reading
here about "beauty rings", I bought a cheapo Harley headlight bracket and robbed the beauty ring
from that and it fit great. The OEM headlight has a beauty ring to rob too, but at the time I didn't
want to limit my options on putting the OEM headlight back on.

Check out SLK lights, they make a direct fit daymaker for the Valkyrie. I installed one earlier this season and I’m very impressed especially for the price of $97.00 shipped

Sylvania standard Silverstar. Very durable as I had almost 60,000 on my 1st. one that was in 3 different bikes. With the Valk reflector they really light up on high beam as I worked 2nd. shift for 12 yrs. Silverstar Ultra is even better but doesn't have the longevity. I like the natural color of halogen over LED. Deer are corn fed in my area thus the population is abundant.

On a note, PIAA are good but longevity might be like the SS ultra.
