I just replaced my 5 3/4" with another, due to the fact I could not get the retaining rings out to replace the bulb without damaging it. Retaining rings wouldn't budge for nothing.
So, I got a "bikers choice" from Demons Cycle... I know, I know, bad dealer, but I didn't know about their rep until a few days after the order. Nevertheless, it was 92 bucks shipped and it came within a week. No problems.
I did not order from their ebay site but the main site. Looks just like the cobra, hell, it's probably the same exact one.
Anyway, I HIGHLY recommend you take the retaining rings (2 of them) out before you mount it. Then brush a coating of anti-seize in the threads.
When I took my replacement light apart, there was a bunch of hardend gunk in the threads. I swear it looked like blue locktite! Had to use a pointy awl to scrape it out of the threads. Then finished up with non-chlorinated brake cleaner.
The rings are hard enough to get out when new, I'm hoping the anti-seize will do it's job comes time a bulb burns out.
Just thought I'd pass on the tip.

Ive got the 5 ž Harley Bullet
.found it on Ebay for $200 brand new!
I really like mine. I dont know that it really goes with the bobber style, but I think it looks pretty nice. I do think it balances out well with that tail light on the 09 bikes ..
