The Best Motorcycle Headlights (Review) in 2023 | Autance

A great LED motorcycle headlight, this unit is shockproof, waterproof, road legal, and DOT and SAE approved. One of the brightest motorcycle headlight options on the market, this LED headlight has a large range of illumination, ensuring you’re both seen on the road and able to see clearly over longer distances.

It’s a good alternative for an OEM halogen headlight and is much brighter too. It’s designed for a variety of Harley-Davidson bikes, including Sportsters, Low Riders, and Wide Glides.

A high-performance LED from Wisamic, this option is easy to install and comes with the added benefit of using refracting diodes as part of its powerful LED construction. Housed in vibration-resistant and durable aluminum, this item is waterproof and shockproof – perfect for long rides on roads with potholes aplenty.

There’s a two-year warranty with this motorcycle headlight, which has a 50,000-hour lifespan. It also comes with lifetime support from customer service. This is perfect if you don’t use your bike as often as you’d like and want to be sure your light lasts longer than the usual daily rider’s longevity of 18 to 24 months.

Standing tall as one of the brightest motorcycle headlight options, this 7” Halo LED headlamp from Z-OFFROAD for Harley-Davidson models also comes with two passing lights for ultimate versatility on the road. The light also acts as a daytime running light to help keep your bike visible at all times. Meanwhile, the low beam and high beam ensure both your safety and the safety of other road users.

The polycarbonate (PC) lens and aluminum housing ensure that this headlamp is shockproof and waterproof. It’s also resistant to scratches to keep your light looking brighter for longer. It’s also dustproof and corrosion-resistant for additional longevity.

A more expensive but quality item, this 7” headlight from SUNPIE is a great choice for those who require a larger diameter in their headlamps. Paired with two passing lamps, this is the full kit for those looking for everything they need to replace the front-facing headlights on their motorbike.

Working in even extreme temperatures between -40 and 80 degrees, this are a veritable workhorse, housed in an aluminum casing. Remaining shockproof and waterproof, this set of headlamps for motorbikes have been created with a crystal-clear lens for added brightness and longevity. Not to mention that it has also been DOT-approved for safety on the roads.

A large headlight with built-in turning signals, this headlight comes ready with its own housing bucket to ensure a safe and secure installation on almost any bike. Built with a “plug and play” design that allows you to quickly and effectively swap over your headlamp with ease, this option uses 6 LEDs to keep your headlamp brighter, for longer.

Waterproof and maintenance-free, this is a slightly more expensive option but does have the added benefit of the turning signal feature, which makes this choice fantastic value-for-money. Coming in a die-cast aluminum housing, the SKYTANTS headlight is also one of the most heavy-duty options, making it a great choice for any buyer.

Another 7” choice for those who use larger headlamps and headlight buckets, this set of 3 includes a headlight, two passing lights, an adapter ring and a one-year warranty – and all for a great price. With the help of the adapter ring, this item is resistant to shock and vibration-causing wear and tear, which helps to improve the overall longevity of the motorcycle headlights.

Created with large cooling ribs to protect against the heat damage that is so often caused by LED motorcycle headlights, you’ll find that these lights are also waterproof and shockproof. They also come with a large range of irradiation, despite a lower rate of lumens, as the spread of light works very effectively.

With a focus on allowing you as the rider to operate your motorcycle with minimal risk to yourself and other road users, LX-Light have created a set of lights that meets the safety needs of every rider. Being DOT-approved is just the start for these guys, as they have also included a pair of passing lights and an adapter ring to help prevent wear and tear from vibration on the road.

These lights are also made with good ventilation which will need to be opened in order to keep the LED headlights for your motorbike nice and cool, when in use. They also come with a year’s warranty included in the price, for added peace of mind.

If you’re a sucker for gadgetry, you’ll be more than pleased with his LED headlight for motorcycles. Coming in with a whopping 4800 lumens on high beam, this is the brightest motorcycle headlight, with a low beam of 3000 lumens to boot. It’s also made of die cast aluminum and comes with a built-in rubber seal, making this purchase waterproof, dustproof and shock resistant.

The big selling point for the RGB Halo headlamp, however, is the multiple color modes and Bluetooth connectivity. You’ll be able to choose from any color you prefer or use the “music mode” in which the colors will automatically change as the beat continues and can even flash to match the music. While this is great fun, we do remind you to always be safe when using your motorbike and keep your focus on the road at all times.

Meeting the traditional reflector type of headlight, this LED motorcycle headlamp from Z-OFFROAD uses a honeycomb LED style in which the lights are laid together to make an extremely bright option for any motorbike rider. Along with the anti-scratch, projector lens and super-bright LED’s, this headlamp is easily the brightest motorcycle headlamp on the market with a colossal 6500lms on it’s high beam.

The “plug and play” design allows for an extra easy installation, which the manufacturer claims should take no longer than 20 minutes and the reviews for this item certainly seem to match this. The only downside to this choice seems to be that the overall lifespan of the headlight is much shorter than some of the others, with a 50,000 hour longevity over the top spot of 80,000 hours.

A fantastically affordable option, that still comes with every feature you could possibly need in a standard motorcycle headlight, this LED headlamp from BICYACO uses a direct-fit into your headlight bucket. The LED chips are built in to the aluminum alloy housing and the unit itself has a pre-constructed, built-in vibration absorbing ring. This, in turn, helps to control the general wear and tear that comes along with the constant vibration you can expect in a motorcycle.

Being DOT, SAE and E-Mark approved makes this one of the few options which has been certified across the board as being safe to ride with and electronically sound. In particular, the low beam has been created so as not to dazzle other road users – a feature not seen too often in a powerful LED headlight.

Designed for optimal visibility, these headlamps from LEDUR have been created with a series of features that are hard to beat. For starters, there’s the die-cast aluminum housing, which provides fantastic protection against wear and tear. Then there’s the wrench-adjustable casing that allows you to alter the fit until the lights are safe and secure to your standards.

These lights were created for long-distance riders who often find themselves on extremely dark or rough roads. With a combined range of 100 to 200 meters, these have some of the best distance available on the market. These universal headlights fit a variety of motorcycles, including Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki, and BMW. You can also use them on ATVs, UTVs, etc.

A shorter option at 5.75” diameter, these COWONE headlamps use three different lighting modes to best suit your environment – these being high, low and DRL which provides a broader view for when you need to see around tight corners and over smaller roads. Indeed, this is one of the reasons why this option is DOT approved and overall a great benefit to your motorcycle.

This item also comes with a superior cooling system, which allows for a greater longevity, as well as a safer lighting system for your vehicle. It also comes with the added benefits of being shock proof, waterproof and dust resistant. Customers have also noted that they have been extremely happy with the customer service provided, with many noting that responses come in less than 24 hours.

Coming up as one of the cheapest options with an excellent rating, this chrome headlight from HOZAN uses pure white LED’s. This improves the overall illumination while still remaining cool during use, thanks to the ventilation system which has been built in to the rear of the headlight. It also uses a “plug and play” design which allows you to quickly and easily install your new item, ensuring you can get out and ride all the sooner.

The only complaint we could spot in the reviews is that the clips which hold this headlamp in place can be a little fragile – although it should be noted that the company responded quickly and sent out replacement parts where this was spotted. Thus, it could simply have been a poor batch that was quickly reconciled.

A sleek-looking option that will look amazing on any bike, this headlight has been made with a polycarbonate lens and LED chips to create a simple, bright choice for any type of rider. The “plug and play” style installation helps to keep things simple when putting this on your bike, while the overall rating has been approved by DOT, SAE and E-Mark, so you can be sure this is an ultra-safe option.

The entire headlight is completely waterproof, while the D-shape optical lenses help to cast a great reach for the 4000-lumen output. There’s also a one-year warranty included with this option, for additional peace of mind.

Another decent choice that will speak to those who like to add a little extra pizzazz to their overall style. This 5 ¾” headlamp from ROCCS comes with a wireless key control that allows you to choose a huge variety of colors and styles for your headlamp. Including plenty of different modes, which combine with the variety of colors, you can choose from fading, strobe, solid and color cycles to match whatever mood you’re in.

There’s also the added benefit of the decent ventilation to keep your new headlamp cool, while you play. Not to mention that this is also shock proof and waterproof, making this a great choice for any rider.
