Cree LED Headlight Bulbs on MY 2004 ST1100 - What a difference!

Here's one source: http://www.MCL OUT OF BUSINESS - DO...n_page=product_info&cPath=1_3&products_id=318

Ignore the part about "for ST1300s". It's not needed for ST1300s and adds nothing positive.

Mike with all due respect this is the 1100 tech forum.. NOt the !300.. You are confusing me and I'm assuming others.

The same headlight bulbs fit both the 1100 and 1300, I am just trying to find out if the newer LED bulbs for bikes are better then before. I know they have made big strides in the automotive setting.

Here's a link to the current E-bay listing for where I've sourced both of my sets.
Delivery takes 2-3weeks (coming from Hungary).

I have LED's in both of them, and love the difference it makes.
Next step is clear indicator lenses, and LED running lights/directional indicators.

Mike,

Thanks, I was not aware of it fitting both bikes,
Sorry if caused aggravation.

Never mind, I see it. You grind for the flat spot on the original?

Hey guys I'm a little confused. The original bulb casts light both up and down through the housing with one of the filaments blocked in one direction. My led kit arrived and I was surprised to see it cast light only in one direction. See pics. Is this going to work? Is yours like this too or should I wrap it up and resell? I've got an 1100 and once I take the tabs off it will be unsellable, so I need to know before I install. Thanks
