Haha thanks, i'd seen plenty of sportsters with crazy mods but they all seemed to stick to the idea of the standard headlight. So i thought it'd be a good place to make it unique.
It's actually fully custom, i bought 6 spotlights from china on ebay, and then made a bracket to hold them in place, i held the bracket in place via bolts in the bottom of my speedometer housing and the triple tree. I connected all the wiring of the spotlights into one and connected it to the standard headlight plug.
The headlight uses LEDs so it's able to power all the lights via the one wire.
Couple of extra pictures hopefully giving a better look:

Very cool! The only thing that stands out to me now is the turnsignals.
Might consider some smoked lens with some Custom Dynamics LED
turnsignals.
Thanks for the pics!

owners... there is actually a whole thread on it somewhere around here.
I bought these for under $100 on eBay then also bought a lowering kit
to keep it looking cool and stock... I run no air in them with just myself,
then put about 5-8 psi in them when doing two up... they work great...

These are road king air springs... it's a mod that is done by some iron
owners... there is actually a whole thread on it somewhere around here.

If you dont want to use lowering blocks you can get
Street Glide air shocks which are 12" eye-to-eye. Of course
you can also use lowering blocks with the SG 12" too...
I believe the prefix numbers go something like this:
545 is 13"
546 is 12"
I have a set of 13" Road King shocks with new Amsoil ShokTherapy
fluid that I dont need. I removed then from the OL's Iron, had to go
with the 12" StreetGlides since she's vertically challenged. If anyone
is interested in them just let me know...
good luck,
T.
