    I’m looking at the Denali D7 2.0 TriOptic LED lights and wondering if anyone has installed them.  They’re certainly powerful—- but how would they look?  Please show us photos if you’ve put a set on your Crosstourer.

    To be honest, they are ridiculously big and also ridiculously expensive.
    I have some nice small ones fitted for about €40 from Ali express. I had some Givi's but i didn't like the light pattern that came of them and i found them too big and they where already smaller than those Denali's.

    Guy on YouTube sells all the Denali stuff he has them on a GSA. Done vids testing them and the do look massive even on his GSA.. Massive power, so much so he says he can only run them with the high beams. With dip they just blind everyone.
    'A bike thing' is the guys channel..

    I have fitted Denali D4's to the CT, the XRV750 AT and the R80/GS. Each has the dipping relay as well. I think they are the best compromise between power and not upsetting oncoming traffic. They give a good flood of light on dip and enough range on main beam. They are in a different league compared with the cheaper alternatives several of my mates have fitted to their bikes.
    I did consider the D7's but think they may be too powerful for normal road work.

    I think you are all right that the D7’s are overkill, too big, etc.  The Denali D4’s will add the desired bump in daytime riding visibility and will fit the bike much better.
