Has anyone had any experience with the >2016 CB500 LED headlight,or the >2017 CB/R650 Headlight.

Tried to attach a photo to a post and it advised it was too large.
Not sure if this was pixel dimensions or data size. or that the system could not handle a resize.

"The Old Road" north of Sydney is a mecha for bike riders, noobs and dickheads of all sorts.
