I know some of you don't make it over to the General Board much so I wanted to make you aware of a new product I have manufactured here on the Texas Board.

***Now available for Standard, and Tourer models with a factory 7" headlight is an Adapter Bracket for installing a 7" LED DayMaker HeadLight. The bracket is $55.00+shipping.

Please email me ValkyrieJosh@gmail.com with your first, last name, and shipping address. I will reply to you with your total cost of the bracket plus shipping, and the link to make payment via PayPal.  

You will then need to buy the DayMaker LED. Any 7" HD DayMaker fixture will work. If you are worried about fit make sure the metal housing of the LED fixture is 7" diameter and no more than 2.75" in depth.

The DayMaker LED Headlights are 'Plug-N-Play' using your existing H-4 headlight connector, meaning no wiring is required. The DayMaker LED's typically use less power while putting out more lumens.

Lastly, once you have both the DayMaker fixture and the adapter bracket in hand go to https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=K48cp45_h6Q for an instructional video on how to install the adapter bracket and the DayMaker headlight.

Please feel free to email ValkyrieJosh@gmail.com with any other questions or concerns.

Thanks, Josh!  I'm really eager to see one in person.  If I hadn't recently completed the full LED replacement on the bike, I'd already have jumped.

I have manufactured  a stainless steel bracket that allows a DayMaker LED headlight to mount into our Valkyries, while maintaning the ability to adjust the headlight as normal.

Email me ValkyrieJosh@gmail.com with your name, and address. I will reply with a total and a link to make payment via PayPal. Then go pick out your 7" DayMaker of your choosing. The headlight is plug n play, and installation takes less than 30 minutes. So I ask.. What are you waiting for?

Which brand of day maker do you recommend?  There are several being sold with that name and the tests I've read are the older ones pitting the HD branded ones against the older 7.

I'm not going to recommend a particular headlight. Part of the beauty on the bracket is that it lets you choose the headlight of your liking.

I will however state that you can find DayMakers that use different watts. Closest to stock would be a 65 watt fixture. You can buy up to 100 watt fixtures but I suggest using the BonS Smart Switch if you buy a higher wattage fixture.

Good luck and have fun find the fixture that suits you best.

It's the end of the summer. If any of you have been on the fence about upgrading your headlight now is the time. I have 29 brackets left in stock. Get yours while the getting is good!

Here is a list of Vendors selling DayMakers to get you started when purchasing yours.

 - http://www.jwspeaker.com/products/categories/headlights/
 - http://www.bodypartsusa.com/led-motorcycle-lighting-lamps/
   + Offers Halo's
- Ebay (Search '7" DayMaker', then limit the search to 'US Only')
   + You will find many, many to choose from.

I took a quick video to clear up some confusion about he Halo light option available on some of the DayMakers out there. Hope this helps you make an informed decision.

I don't know how many Josh has left, but it's no more than 27.   Wink   I ordered two yesterday and he shipped them within a couple of hours. 

Now, to halo or not to halo.   Undecided

Close. 24 and counting. If you are comfortable with wiring a new harness at least go with the White Halo. Holy Visibility Batman!  Shocked

Thanks Disco!

I had a good week of sales, the number of brackets I have available are dwindling. You all are quickly grabbing them up. I have just 14 brackets left. Get one while the getting is good.
