2015 Headlights
I just did my first little night ride. The LED headlights are quite bright and visibility and clarity is good. There was a slight drizzle and I got home with dry knees. Something that used to irritate me on my superbike. I live in an area with no street lamps so it was very effective.

Re: 2015 Headlights
I never had a bike with LED headlights until this pcx150 . I've only been out at night once so far and I wasnt all that impressed , I'll have to get use to them .
Re: 2015 Headlights
They are using less wattage than our halogens at 5.4 watts (low beam) or 9.6 watts (high beam). Is this another advantage of our 2013's?

Is why I raised my headlight beam up higher, easier to be noticed and certainly helps me to be seen by traffic pulling out into my lane.

Re: 2015 Headlights
The halogen lights of my 2013 are by far the best of any of the bikes I own. But they are still not quite enough. Bikes need more light than cars, not less. Why put a legal limit on them that is less than cars? I put a DDM tuning HID conversion in my CBR250R which is very bright but still has a decent pattern, unlike some of the earlier conversions that sprayed light all over the place. But the PCX has a weird bulb that they don't make a kit for. And I also added some ADVMonster led auxiliary spots so now I can see better than any of my cars.
