I had the Acerbis Diamond on my CBR. Installations is VERY straight forward and VERY simple. Here is a pic of it:

I have the buell lightning dual headlights on my bike and am very happy with them.  MUCH brighter and much more focused than the GS headlight.  I think it's a solid cosmetic upgrade, too.

here's a write-up of how I installed mine.  The thread also has a link to another thread with an alternate (and much better looking) installation by The_Antibody.

I've got a Blitz on my semi-tard, and it sucks for night riding anywhere that there's no street lights.  The high and low beam are identical, and I couldn't find a way to wire it so that low beam used one light and high beam used both.
