Which Bullet style Headlights 4.5" or 5.75"

I like the look and I am going to order the new head light, But I was wondering what other guys were running, The 4.5" or the 5.75"? Hard to tell from a picture.

I am running the 5.75, I think the 4.5 looks to small.

I have the HD 5.75 and prefer it as well. One thing to consider is whether you want the turn signals to match or not. The bullet type add ons for the HD turn signals complement the 5.75 HD one.

That head light looks great. I have been wanting to change mine to a 5 3/4", I will be doing it soon after seeing it.

I would definitely go with the larger headlamp. As others have said, the smaller one looks out of place.

Have you considered the HD Visor Style Trim Kit? It completely changes the look of the front end at a fraction of the cost.
