Naughty thoughts, naughty thoughts.... The diffusion of the edge of the beam has to be down to the quality of the bulb used.

TM said: "hey TC were gettin a better class of peep's noone commented about 'following a Harley'' I know TM - feels great, doesn't it?? This thread has made me think about upgrading my front light too - especially as after a night ride last week someone asked how I could see with my 'oil lamp' on the front... (it is pretty dim on dipped beam)

Have already upgraded my Halogen to Xenon, was def worth doing even if it is only slight improvement, main beam really blasts up the road. Also, if main beam was set straight dip was to low, slightly higher now, that was with a Halfords bulb which surprisingly got best reviews.

6000K def gives better vision than 8000K

Hey karey, its all your fault, as you know I tried 3 lidl shops and they were sold out but bought plenty of other goods, all good, so i was determined to get what i wanted from Aldi so got up early there for 9.15 only to find shop doesnt open till 10,00am by that time there must have been 50 peeps queuing......thought of you....determined to be at front got into a gallop in store only to find everyone else went to the other side for food offers! prices were good and plenty of variety, I did buy tops in all colours which i have not tried yet. I can only imagine how you girlies must sweat in tights as the underwear is of similar denier.......got some great gear overall thanks for the info.......i owe you a drink Peter xx

Hey Peter ! nice one! haha I can imagine the mad rush for the goodies.. (the others werent obviously bikers, eh?) lol I dint get to Aldi as I was on the BM rideout up at Harrogate. I'm glad you got some decent stuff. As for the tights, i dont wear them personally.. horrible things.... but stockings and hold ups are another matter... lol Will hold you to that drink laddy !
