I bought a genius and it won't fit the aluminum ring inside the bucket, but the 400 Harley light does?
But I just bought a replacement LED bulb and put it in. And I must say that it is nice and bright. Nice white light that illuminates the road nicely.

And then use the same stock photos.

I see it... That's funny. One would have thought that they could have touched up the photo.

Picked this up. haven't mounted it but some friends use them. Reviews are good. Arrived in the mail and its pretty solid.
I just ordered this too. Price is too good to not give it a shot. Hope it mounts up easily to my FXDX.

Finally got around to installing this last night. No way in hell it would fit, especially because it needed the giant canbus box to even turn on. Wasted my cash since it's past the date of being able to return it.

I'll post it up in the marketplace unless someone has a suggestion on making it fit.

I ended up buying the $50 wisamic Amazon headlight a couple months ago. I got it to fit in the stock bucket on my 15 Street Bob no problem. Also haven't had any problems at all with it.

Brother, I paid the Harley price for a daymaker on my night train about two years ago.

A few weeks ago I traded the night train for a 2017 low rider S.

So after reading on here I ordered two of these:
Amazon Amazon

one for my bike, and one for my wife's low rider.

I'm here to tell you that there seems to be no difference. The Harley one is shaped and looks exactly the same as the amazon version. My Harley one had a little bar and shield logo on the front. And that's the only difference.

Good luck.

I picked one up from 'Hardly Deadly" about a month ago and couldnt be happier with it. Much brighter than stock and the price was great IMO.

https://www.hardlydeadly.com/product...-led-headlight

half price sale, additional 10% off for your first order and free shipping.

When installing mine it was also a crazy tight fit that i did not like, so I cut the plugs off and crimped insulated Male/Female Sta-Kons on. It fit with a ton of room to spare then.

I think you guys aren't having this issue since you have newer bikes.

Mine's an 02 FXDX which requires the huge CANBUS module.

Hmmm.
