My riding buddy Adam and I took an extra day off over the already extended Labor Day weekend to go out and abuse our bikes (both DR650’s) and bodies on a four-day, 1,400 mile torture test. Let me just say that I love my job! It is my responsibility, my DUTY to go and ride my motorcycle so that I can test and evaluate the plethora of products available to ensure that we carry and sell only the best of what is available. Honestly, we don’t just put things on the website because somebody suggests it, or a salesman told me he had the deal of the century. Nope.

Motorcycle headlights usually leave a lot to be desired when it comes to actually seeing where you are going in the dark. This is especially true of the DR650. With my eyes no longer working like they did when I was 20 (or even when I was 40) getting more light in front of the bike is more important than ever.
