I think a 5 3/4" bullet looks much better than a fatboy 7" headlight.

I like the big gigantic headlight look. If you want a different look get a bolt on eyelid cover like mine if you don't have a lot of cash.

Personally, I like the Fat Boy light over the smaller EOM light. Now I am wondering about a French'ed Ring or leave it alone.

You could go with a 5 3/4 bullet headlight like rounder suggested. I think it would look awesome. Btw, I dont think your ride looks dopey at the moment. Kind of a snub-nosed look.

Cheers,

Tom
