I have been looking for a good option to replace the stock headlight bulbs for my 2013 Daytona 675R since I picked up the bike last spring. I had HIDs in my 2007 675 and 2012 675R, but since Triumph switched the headlights from projectors, to reflectors, the HID conversion wouldn't be a good option without converting the headlights to projectors. I haven't found a halogen bulb that didn't have a yellow tinge, no matter how much the manufacturer stated they were comparable to HIDs. I came across a website, electricalconnection.com that had LED headlight bulbs. I decided to take a chance and bought the $145 H7 dual set up for both the high and low beam. They claimed they were plug & play so I decided why not. An important thing to note is these LED bulbs are made to be used with reflector housing so light isn't scattered everywhere. I received them today in the mail and it only took me about 30 mins to install. The set up includes the LED bulb, a small fan, a spacer, and the voltage regulator. The LED bulb installs like any H7 halogen bulb would, then you screw a little fan onto the back of the bulb. You plug 1 wire from the bulb, and 1 wire from the fan into the voltage regulator. The voltage regulator is a small square box, just like the ones with HID kits, just a lot smaller. Then the voltage regulator has a plug you connect to the bike's plug that connected to the H7 bulb. Very easy install, especially if you're familiar with the HID conversion.
The lights are pure white and very bright. Unlike HIDs they require no warm up time and are instant on when you turn on the bike. I can't comment on durability since I just installed them, but the build quality looks good and since they're LED they should be pretty durable. So far I am very pleased with them. Much better than the stock halogen bulbs, and good alternative to use with the new reflector headlight housing.
