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.
