Out of curiosity, is this claim accurate?
LED light conversion question.

Claim seems like it might be accurate but that sure doesn’t guarantee it will fit a Tenere.
You would most likely need bigger caps-covers.
I didn’t see any mention of lumens output.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do !

Here are the specs.
I can invert the o ring of the LED bulb to save some 4 or 5 mm may be...if you see the picture the external part is wider than the one that goes inside the headlight...just thinking loudly here

I know you don't want to change the caps, but I can tell you from experience that Deftoner's caps are excellent replacements and the added room really open up your options for replacement lights.
I assume you are going for something similar to this?

What they’re claiming, simple dimensions, are probably accurate, but while the location of
The source is important, that’s hardly the whole story.
What I don’t like about LED “bulbs” compared to OEM halogen or HID lighting is that the LEDs aren’t emitting light at 360° from the source, just two sides. The headlight reflector is designed to collect and reflect light from
A 360° source.
I’ve not been satisfied with either the pattern or the amount of light on the road with the LEDs I’ve tried, including Cyclops and various eBay/Amazon off brands. I finally bit the bullet and installed an HID kit.

Ordering the 3d printed caps would be a costly proposition if I include international shipping....

I bought a different brand that made the same claim [ see P1 post 15 of this thread].
No problems fitting with original caps.

I don't ride much at night but they seem ok. To me they are a better look than the yellow original lights.
Thanks for the hug.

Agreed. I just went straight to Deftoner by PM went I swapped in LEDs. His caps are great and I got lighting info directly from him via PM. Cool guy and product. I second just getting the caps and open your options on lighting.I know you don't want to change the caps, but I can tell you from experience that Deftoner's caps are excellent replacements and the added room really open up your options for replacement lights.

No extended cap needed for these.
Had them on for two months. No issues yet.

How did you make them fit? They don't on my bike.
Nevermind. They do fit nicely. Just have to mess with it a bit.
