Default Fatboy Lighting

I've got a 2010 Fatboy Lo that I'm am always riding. I do alot of night riding, (work 2nd shift) and I'm looking for some additional lighting. I went from OEM bulbs to a HID kit and now on too a Truck Lite 7" LED which is Awesome on high beam but low still leaves much to be desired. I'm fixing to add a bullet fairing so a light bar and passing lamps are a no go so do you guys have any suggestions for some lighting?

*I do also have a complete HID H4 bulb setup that can be used if need be*

I hated the hid light on my fatboy. Light pattern scatters to much. Do you have a crash bar? You could mount some lights on there or get some clamp on lights for the front frame down tubes. You could also use the custom dynamics sunspots? I think that's what they are called. They are white and turn yellow when you turn on the turn signals.

Add an engine guard (crash bar) and some lights. The Rigid Lights SR-Q2 are an extremely bright driving light with a high and low.
