Ok, still getting use to riding in Florida. NO ONE USES THEIR TURN SIGNALS HERE, no one follows any tyoe of rules of the road. I have had so many close calls here. I thought cagers were scary in Saint Louis. I went for a late night ride the other night. A mile out someone pulls out in front of me and I just missed hitting them, about a mile past that I am on a dark street that is a main road and speed limit is 55. 3 girls run acrost the road. I did not see them until I was right on them. I came very close to hitting one of them. Right after that I am crossing a road and someone on other side, with no signal, turns left as I am going straight and almost takes me out. All in one night. Well, getting back to the post title. The mishap with the girls crossing the street and the amount of night riding I have been doing lately, I realize how bad stock headlights are. I have a brighter high beam light bulb "Sylvania", but needed to adjust the high beam up. I bought a HID headlight kit for dims months ago from a member here (milesbm) but never installed. Just installed it today. Going to go out tonight and see how it works. I adjusted my brights too. The 08 has a little better headlight, and thank god they impoved the piss poor headlights. I love my bike, don't get me wrong, but you would think that a bike that can go almost 200 mph would have a half way decent headlight.
