I have these in my 02 foxeyed fazer and I think they are so much brighter.
I don't know if they fit the boxeye though.i thought 1 side is a H4 and the other H7 but I,m not sure.

1) Too expensive.

2) if you have a boxeye, it won't help, if you have a foxeye, you don't need 'em.

I believe foxeye has 2 H4s, while the boxeye has H4 and H7.

I've also heard good things reported on the forum about the Osram Nightbreaker bulbs - I may well buy a set for the coming winter when I may get caught out in the dark. At current I do very little night riding so it hasn't been a concern for me

That's good to hear after reading others saying it's pointless on a boxeye. Got a set of the same to fit................after I've repaired the wiring that literally fell off the loom  :'(
