Hi Mr Gazza,

I bought this two years ago, so I don't recall the exact lumens specs - sorry.

The unit was manufactured by Cree, has a polycarbonate lens, and does require a small blackbox (supplied) to power the light. It was simple enough to splice and solder the cables and I located the blackbox under the tank as it will not fit inside the headlamp shell.

The light pattern will best be shown by pics & I will see what I can come up with using a trusty smartphone over the next few days provided its not raining around 9pm...

The light is much brighter than the original Ducati OEM candle, and it is certainly an improvement.

These LED lights do change the look of the bike, and thats a subjective personal thing. Initially I wasn't too sure, but after using it and allowing a little time to pass that changed. I now like the more edgy (to me) style and combined with being able to see on the way home makes it a good mod.

I paid £70 approx for it from ebay.
