Looking for a bracket to move my headlamp
I need to move my headlamp forward about an inch or so to get it either inline with or just forward of my windscreen. When I ride in int the mornings it is usually dark and most of the roads are back roads with very little light on the road. Lighting up the road isn't my issue, the reflection of the light off the inside of my windscreen is to much and with the brights on it damn near blinds me, so I need to move the lamp forward to eleiminate this. Any suggestions or links to something that will help me solve the issue?
Here are some pics of how things look now.

I agree that style windshield with quick attach mounting SUCKS!!! on these dyna bikes. I just put a visor on mine and that fixed it for me. But it wouldn't be hard to fab your own head light bracket to move the light forward.

WOW that light looks great mounted high like that. Not sure i use knuckles for the job though. A good set knuckles is getting harder to find.

Thanks Latrobe! The knuckles are actually bottle opener key chains. I tried real full sized knuckles but they were too big. Here in Okla. Knuckles can be bought at gunshows and are labeled as "paper weights", LoL. They can also be ordered online.

This might do the trick
Flipped so it protrudes rather than recesses the headlight:
