PIAA Lights

This will be my first review of a product. This is an experience I feel my readers should know when they may be considering the purchase of a PIAA lighting system.

I bought a set of PIAA 1100X driving lights for use on my GL1000. This is a bike known for smoothness so I fell it did not contribute to the problem I had with the units. They work well for a short period but then I noticed that the left side was out. After an investigation I found the ceramic/plastic support for the electric leads for the $55.00 bulb had disintegrated. I sprang for a new bulb (did I mention it was $55.00 retail). I got a new one for $47.00 (still high) and had it last about the same amount of time. After contact with the original purchaser I was informed their policy for return problems was 30 days I contacted the "Service " department for PIAA. I got a very positive response from Alan Avery. He informed me that they recognized a year warranty on the bulb. If I were to pack if up a send it off to him with the purchase receipt he would send me a new one. Great I thought, nice company, great product.

If you are considering the purchase of a set of PIAA lights I hope this experience comes to mind . If you feel that you would like to add a comment positive or negative please send it to me and I will add it to this Tip.

Here's a wave from the oncoming lane.
