Man, it’s hot outside today too~
\nPeak summer\u2605
\nWe’re just cruising along peacefully.
\nWe’ve got a tester on staff, so thanks for your patience.

The classic case of a bulb that won’t produce enough brightness\u2605
\nWe haven’t kept manufacturer statistics, but most of them are duds.
\nThis one was also wired directly to the battery, and even with the light beam aligned, it only puts out 10,000 candelas\u2605
\nSwitching to a different bulb bumped it up 2.5 times right away.
 
\n
 
The Katana’s light bracket is a real pain\u2014the lens contacts the fairing
\nEverything’s floating too much, and it gave us quite a headache.
 
\n
 
Another Katana… this one also has the lens slightly touching the fairing, and there’s no adjustment range\u2014we really struggled with it
 
\n
 
GS1200SS\u2014bikes from around this model year adjust perfectly, and it feels great.
 
\n
 
The photo’s out of focus, but if we don’t fix this, the emissions will completely fail.
 
\n
 
This one too\u2014we managed it\u2605 The plastic on the lens adjustment is worn, and there’s a lot of play, but we got it sorted

\nEveryone,
