Hey guys, don't you think the headlights are not visible enough at night? When standing next to other bikes, my light is not visible at all. How do you all ride at night? Do we need to add fog lights?

Do you mean visible in terms of how it illuminates the road ahead? Or visible to other drivers? I worried about the latter so I installed a pair of Denali DRL pods at the bottom of the forks. Very visible to others. I don’t ride at night so I am concerned about being visible to others. Maybe your OEM lights need to have the aim adjusted.

PS. Welcome to the forum!

I found that my GT's the dip beam headlight (LHS as you are sitting on the bike) was poorly adjusted. I've now lowered it three times and have finally hit on a setting which doesn't dazzle everyone else. In fact I may take it back up half a turn but overall the lights are pretty good IMHO.
