   The reviews I've read state they're great - but wanted to know if anyone here found them good.
   
   Didn't think it was too difficult to answer.

   Sorry mate wasn't supposed to come across as sarcasm, I've gone down the illegal route with 100w bulbs, they are great but you run the risk of being done

   I bought some and popped them in around a fortnight ago. They are a trillion times better than my old ones which were those fake xenon crap things.
   
   They are a crisp clear light and not too yellow, I'd certainly recommend them. Put it this way, I could only tell my old ones were on if I was on an unlit road. With the nightbreakers, they light the road ahead even on well lit roads.
   
   Edit- I read to go for the nightbreaker PLUS, because they last longer supposedly.

   i upgraded my rubbish 35/60w bike bulbs to some of these. hard to really compare because of the dipped beam rating difference, but they are easily the brightest out of any of my friends bikes, definatly a good set of bulbs!

    LOL, have you noticed?!
    
    Years before now I was a bit of a noob and didn't know how to get that clear white crisp light on Audi's and BMW's. Went through tones of bulbs / coloured bulbs, etc. Found out that HID's were the answer. Did lots of research, had them on the Saxo and got annoyed as they were throwing light upwards, blinding everyone. They were a crap make
    
    Kept thinking "Am I ever going to have headlights I'm going to be happy with?!" lol! So until I get projector headlights with HID's, I've decided to just get good halogens.
    
    And that, my friends, is the story of my bulb saga...
