I installed a 'longer' headlight on my Bob. You can get an idea from my avatar. Hope this helps.

While I've been looking thru headlights on ebay, I've noticed some nice lookin bigger diameter ones and was wondering if they look dumb on a wg/fxst nose....which they prob do.....or maybe not.

Is that the right link? Those are spot lights on a light bar...

I'm running the 5 3/4" X 9" Cobra II from Eastern Performance.

Does that mean you would have three lights on the front: the stock and the two externals like on the link you listed?

yes, that's the right link. It's like a mini light bar. I'm looking for a nice looking headlight that will match it.
