Alright so I've done a decent bit of research on here it it seems the Philips Xtreme Power and Xtreme Vision along with the Osram Night Breaker are all very, very good bulbs for performance. My Ducati takes the H7 for the low beam and the H1 for the high beam; what needs the most help would be the low beam.
One of my concerns is longevity. I suppose I'm willing to sacrifice some longevity to get increased performance, but I really do not want to be replacing bulbs every two months. Of course the low beam serves as the running light, in addition to a line of LEDs that "dress up" the large circular headlight assembly. So I will be using the low beam any time the bike is actually running.
Do you all believe one bulb will give me the best performance and longevity combination over another bulb? Which route would you likely go if it were going into your own bike?
Thanks!
EDIT: After continuing to look for H7 bulbs I ran across the Osram Rally bulb; apparently its somewhat durable and manages a pretty typical lifespan, a fact that seems from my bit of research to be a problem with most bulb upgrades.
Anyway, still awaiting some input!
