The Rivco LED headlight bulb for Harley & Indian motorcycles simply replaces your dull stock H4 halogen bulb. It will fit an array of makes and models of motorcycles and it's an easy plug and play installation. Check out the below YouTube video as we install a Rivco LED headlight bulb on a Harley. We also do a nighttime riding comparison between the Rivco LED headlight bulb for Harley & Indian & a stock Harley halogen bulb. You'll quickly realize why the Rivco LED is the best Harley LED headlight bulb out there.

You might be asking if the Rivco LED headlight bulb is as bright as a full blown aftermarket headlight replacement, meaning replacement of the entire headlight unit and not just the bulb. The answer is, no, it's not as bright as a full LED headlight replacement. However, it is a more budget-conscious option and it's still way brighter than that stock H4 halogen bulb. The Rivco is less than $100 whereas a full aftermarket LED headlight replacement for Harley is from $400-$600.

For the best full Harley & Indian LED headlight unit replacement, we suggest a Vision X XMC LED Headlight. We also did a complete review and nigh testing video on the Vision X XMC LED Headlight.

The Rivco LED headlight produces a super-bright 3000-lumen output. It is much brighter than factory H4 bulbs which range from only 1000-1650 lumens. The Rivco LED headlight kit turns nighttime darkness into the day with 6000-Kelvin of pure white light. In contrast, your factory halogen bulbs are rated at 3200-Kelvin and produce a more yellow-tinted light. The Rivco LED-100 will also allow you to see 30% farther and 15% wider than your factory halogen bulbs.

The results of our nighttime ride tests are astounding and you'll realize how unsafe it is to ride during the day or night with the stock halogen bulb. The Rivco LED headlight bulb will let you see way better when riding your motorcycle at night, but will also keep you much safer when riding during the day, as it will be seen by motorists much easier because it's so bright. Seeing a nighttime road hazard on your motorcycle just a split second earlier could save your life.

We run many Rivco LED headlight bulbs on our Harley-Davidson motorcycles here at Law Abiding Biker Media and trust them. That's why we carry them right in the Law Abiding Biker Online Store! Why settle? Get the best Harley LED headlight bulb now and ride safer!

3 Best & Brightest LED Headlights for Harley-Davidson | Real World Testing by Bikers

June 17, 2017 By Ryan Urlacher 25 Comments

Vison X LED Headlight (Winner)

Video-I installed and tested 3 of the best & most commonly known LED headlights for Harley-Davidson motorcycles in this video. I tested these motorcycle headlights in a real world biker environment. I filmed the results & am sharing my findings with you in this comparison video. There are an array of LED headlights for Harley's in the marketplace, but not all are that good. We all know the stock halogen headlights on Harley's lack in brightness, but there are exceptions depending on what Harley model you get. Some models are coming with Harley Daymaker LED headlights now.

The 3 Harley LED Headlights I Tested:

Note: A wiring adapter plug is needed if going from stock 2 plug Harley halogen headlamp to a single plug LED headlamps such as the Ciro 3D Vison X or the Kuryakyn Phase 7. It is your responsibility to make sure you get the correct wiring adapter. These wiring adapters basically convert the two plug stock Harley halogen headlight to a single plug LED headlight plug. This information is just for guidance.

Additional Information:

#1-VISION X XMC 7″ HEADLIGHT LED (By Ciro 3D)

The Ciro 3D Vision X is my favorite and came in first place for many reasons. I really like the look of the headlight when off & it looks even better when on! It has a very nice integrated glow ring around the actual headlight that has a really bad ass look. The other headlights I tested lacked this additional integrated LED glow ring. It comes in both 7″ and 5.75″ models in colors black/chrome and chrome. It also comes in a two set for Harley Road Glides!

The Vision X LED Headlight is priced at $420, much less than the Harley Daymaker at $525. The best part is that the Vision X outperforms the Daymaker at a lesser price. The Vision X is especially impressive in high-beam mode. It produces a more white, thicker, wider, & brighter light than the Daymaker. You'll want to watch my video to see what I'm talking about. Here is what Ciro 3D says about it.

Light the night with this superbright and durable LED headlight from Vision X. Glow ring is integrated and the light is backed by a lifetime warranty!

#2-HARLEY DAYMAKER PROJECTOR LED HEADLAMP

The Harley Daymaker LED headlight is the most expensive and way overpriced. Well, because that's standard practice for Harley. Don't get me wrong, it's a great headlight & I doubt anyone would be disappointed with the performance. It came in second place in my testing. Here is what Harley says about it.

Cut through the night. Harley-Davidson® Daymaker™ LED Lamps are brighter and whiter in color and provide a superior light pattern over standard incandescent lamps. Compared to the yellow light of a traditional halogen bulb, the LED lamp produces a daylight color impression that appears more natural to the user.

#3-KURYAKYN PHASE 7 LED HEADLAMP

The Kuryakyn Phase 7 LED is a good LED headlight for Harley and comes in at a price way less than the Vision X and Daymaker at only $270. I ran the Phase 7 LED on my Harley Street Glide Special for several years before being introduced to the Vision X. I never wanted to pay Harley for their overpriced Daymaker. I even did a video review and comparison between the stock Harley headlight and the Phase 7 LED.

I liked the Kuryakyn Phase 7 and it is way brighter than the stock Harley halogen headlamp. It is more of a budget LED headlight in my opinion for those that want a brighter LED headlight on their Harley, but can't spend too much money. It'll definitely be a step up.

However, the Phase 7 just can't compare when tested against the brightness of the Vision X and Daymaker. So, in the case of these Harley LED headlights, it seems that more money does buy a brighter LED headlight.
