Thanks...some love it and some hate it. Wanted something different so fitted a 7" LED unit into the original headlight, give lots of light in the evening and is good visible in the day.

@grog
@Icebreaker

The unit itself is available in black or chrome, meaning the part where the lights are fitted in. Thought that black would look the nicest on my bike and ordered it at Ali Express. It`s a standard unit they usely use for a kind of bike i will not dare to mension here haha. It was possible to order a complete headlight but I wanted to use the original headlight, so I only needed the unit. I had to sacrifice my old reflector to fit this one, cut off the glass part and eventually the new unit was fitted on the old reflector of the headlight. It does not have a parklight but there are other kinds of LED units that do have this option. Once i found out how I was going to do it, it wasn`t that difficult actually. Light gives a nice wide beam using low beam, high beam adds enough to look far enough, depending on the adjustment ofcourse. If you like I could send some pictures.
