Headlight report

Ok...I kinda lost track of time but between 3 and 4 years ago my headlight burned out and I needed to get a new one. I considered the Silverstars, but heard they were a tad fragile. So I looked at all the choices.
The Sylvania XTRAVISION 9003/HB2 XV 60/55W for just under $10 looked like the best trade off for brightness and durability and value.
It was brighter than the stock bulb and I was very happy with the vision down the road.
I put a write up at that time and said I would check back when it broke, well.....it broke today, I was out riding and my customary check headlight in the reflection of the car in front of me revealed I had no headlight on low beam. High was fine so I left it there.........went straight and got another same bulb and if it goes another 3-4 years Ill be happy.

Sounds like and is a good return on investment.
Whether it was 3 or 4 years-to be able to stretch a $10.00 item that far!!
That is a good thing.
Thanks for that report.
RIDE SAFE.
