See exactly how much more road you'll light up
Pick any two DENALI light pods — or compare against a stock headlight — and drag the slider to see how each one throws light down the road. Beams are modeled from each light's published specs (lumens, beam pattern, and reach).

Which DENALI light is right for you?
- Just seeing the gains vs stock: A stock headlight throws ~800 lm and fades fast at speed — any DENALI pod is a big step up in reach and spread.
- Compact & subtle (DM, D2): The smallest pods — easy to tuck in tight, great on mid-size bikes where the D7 would be overkill.
- Best value street-legal distance (D3 Driving): TriOptic hybrid beam, ECE/SAE compliant, roughly half the price and power draw of the D7 with genuinely useful throw.
- Bad weather & tight roads (D3 Fog): A wide, even wash right in front of the bike that fills the foreground your headlight misses.
- Balanced size + output (D4): Spot-plus-diffuser combo — real distance and spread without the D7's footprint or draw.
- Maximum reach (D7): 7,665 lm spot reaching ~1,200 ft — riders spot deer and debris in time to react.
- Flagship, no compromise (D7 PRO): 23,000 lm raw with spot/flood/hybrid in one and dual-circuit control — built for fast, dark, open roads.
- Even elliptical spread (DL-series): DL-2 wide flood → DL-9 long-throw; a smooth elliptical hybrid beam — pick by how much output you want.
What riders say
DENALI DM ★ 4.6
- Compact and easy to tuck into tight spots, with more useful output than its size suggests.
- A clean, subtle add for riders who want extra visibility without a big footprint.
DENALI D2 ★ 4.7
- The TriOptic lenses let you tune spot vs spread — small pods, surprisingly strong punch.
- A rider favorite for mid-size bikes where the D4/D7 would be overkill.
DENALI D3 Driving ★ 4.8
- The swappable TriOptic lens system wins people over — a street-legal ECE/SAE hybrid beam that reaches well down the road.
- Long-term reviews highlight about half the price and power draw of the D7 with genuinely useful distance.
DENALI D3 Fog ★ 4.7
- Riders love it for bad weather and tight, twisty roads — a broad, even wash that fills the foreground the headlight misses.
- Purpose-built fog optics keep the light low and wide where it helps in rain and fog.
DENALI D4 ★ 4.8
- A favorite balance of size and output — the spot-plus-diffuser combo gives both distance and usable spread.
- Big jump in visibility over stock without the footprint or draw of the D7.
DENALI D7 ★ 4.9
- Reaches farther down the road than almost anything riders have tried — many say they now spot deer and debris in time to react.
- Bright enough to add real daytime conspicuity, and one of the brightest lights available under 4.5 inches.
DENALI D7 PRO ★ 4.9
- The flagship — three beam patterns in one with independent dual-circuit control, and 23,000 lumens of raw output.
- Overkill for some, exactly right for fast, dark, open roads; riders call it a genuine game-changer.
DENALI DL-2 ★ 4.6
- A compact, even flood that fills the whole foreground — great close-range visibility for slower, technical riding.
- Clean modular DL styling with DataDim; an easy, tidy upgrade over stock.
DENALI DL-4 ★ 4.7
- The elliptical hybrid beam blends useful width with real distance — a popular do-it-all pick in the DL line.
- Riders like the balanced spread that fills both the road ahead and the shoulders.
DENALI DL-6 ★ 4.8
- Steps up reach and output noticeably over the DL-4 while keeping the smooth elliptical spread.
- A strong middle-of-the-range choice for mixed touring and adventure riding.
DENALI DL-9 ★ 4.8
- The top of the DL line — nine LEDs of elliptical hybrid throw that reaches deep down the road.
- Big, even light with DataDim control; a favorite for fast, dark highway miles.

Common questions
Are DENALI lights street-legal?
Many DENALI pods (like the D3 with its TriOptic hybrid lens) are engineered to ECE and SAE/DOT standards. Aim them properly and follow your local laws on auxiliary lighting.
What is DataDim technology?
DataDim lets the light run at both low and high power automatically — tied to your high-beam circuit — so you get a courteous low output around town and full power when you flick to high beam.
Will these fit my motorcycle?
DENALI lights are near-universal and mount with model-specific brackets and plug-and-play CANsmart wiring for many bikes. Set your bike in our garage or ask us and we'll confirm the right kit.
Do I need one or a pair?
A single pod adds meaningful visibility; a pair delivers the even, wide-and-far spread most riders want. The comparison above shows per-pod output.
