That looks like a decent bulb.
I have an older type with a fan that's been in about 3 years now.
My bike ('06 SV650n) has had issues with overheating wiring connectors and the H4 plug, so the lower draw of the LED helped that issue as well as throwing out more light than even a high output conventional SilverStar bulb I was using.
Because of the way the LEDs are arranged, you do get a break in the pattern down the middle, but the increased output pretty much overcomes that. I wish they made a H4 bulb with a complete 360 degree output like a conventional bulb. When I bought mine the photo showed something like that, but when it arrived it was the standard type (left and right emitters).
One other benefit is the low beam stays on when the high beam comes on, unlike a conventional bulb.
