I'm planning to change my headlight this winter and always thought mine looked a little small. Anybody running a 7" bucket on their Wide Glides? Pics and Thoughts?
I have a 7" on my Street Bob with a wide front end (Fat Bob trees). If what your looking for is a front end view with the light on, I can try and get a pic of mine (without the fairing). From the front I would imaging that the rake wouldn't be noticeable between views, the big differences visually would be the bars, the fender and maybe my light sitting a little lower due to the fairing.
Nice. Thanks! I like it from the front but I think it's gonna take some work to get it as far back as I want. I might have to go with a side-mount bucket.
The bracket I have the light mounted to isn't a stock one. It pushes the light out 1.5" and drops about 3/8" below top edge of bottom tree. My stock mount would have it close to the trees and up about a .5". I suggest mounting the light to what you have and then see if Headwinds has a mount the will move it where you want if not good.
Of the 7 rows of different mounts in the pic, I have the one that is in the 4th row (2nd row with headlight pics). I have modified it to look more like the last two but not with as much of a drop. I would think the short one main the second or third row would work for you.
