Which of these go better with this bike. I think I like the OEM trim more.

I think I like the bigger one better, but I do tend to prefer bigger headlamps. I've got a 7" on mine. Both look fine, so...personal preference?

I think the larger trim (and larger headlights in general) give a kind of cool "locomotive" look to things, but the smaller ring stays more in keeping with the lines of your bike (to my eye). But what the hell do I know!

As long as you are asking I like the larger one. Where did you get it and how much?

Larger would be okay if it angled back towards the bottom of the ring. Otherwise.. yeah, OEM ring for that light...my opinion.
