Does that point straight at the ground or is that an effect of the camera angle? It looks really bright, but it also looks like it's aimed hard at 2-' in front of you. Please tell me I'm missing something.
Looks like a sloppy upper cut off to the beam. That's what's holding me back on the LED bulbs... they seem to just kind of toss light out everywhere like a cheap HID kit. They certainly are bright, but I don't want to be blinding oncoming traffic.
Anyone have pictures of them shining onto a wall at ~25' or so? Don't think I've seen one from the NC yet.

Well then you have not been paying attention then. I have been using one on NaNCy since last May, check out the images below.
They do use 2 different LED Arrays to accomplish both Low Beam (Top Only) and High Beam (Both). The unit only draws a little over 2 Amps in either beam.
No, I've been paying attention, I'm aware of the power savings, and I've seen that picture in your garage a dozen times. But... it doesn't show me anything about the beam pattern. You posted up a short review here - http://nc700-forum.com/forum/nc700-mods/5289-led-headlight-coming-soon-maybe-3.html#post97582, but no mention of how the light was thrown around.
There are a few reviews online, of the H4 conversions in particular that concern me (like this one - [Product Review]Independent Cyclops H4 LED Bulb Review - ADVrider )
I'd definitely appreciate it if one of you LED guys would post up a wall shot of the beam. I like the idea of LED lighting, I'm just not so sure it's a good fit in standard reflector housing. I've got an old H4 HID kit sitting on the shelf for the same reasons.

Would that be enough to satisfy you then?
Well, did this myself earlier this evening to picture the beam pattern that concerns you so, see the image below.

Settle down, I wasn't attacking you, just voicing concerns about dazzling grandma with light sensitivity while she's hurdling towards me in her Buick in the oncoming lane. That matters to me (and the police I'm sure).
Thanks for the pictures, I'll probably replace the halogen with an LED when it quits on me.

I'm believer of this led, brighter than stock and cagers notes you.
