RE: Fatboy headlight on FXST
Mega, you asked for a picture of my vision, well I found one. This is a NT on ebay right now, and it has a FB headlight. I think with the new frenched/visor trim ring it will look much better.

Well I picked up a FB headlight on ebay cheap. If it doesn't look right I can always change back to the stock one. That is what I love about Harley's. I'll post pictures when done.

Love to see the pics, post an update when you get it installed. Hey who knows, I have seen people use parts that I didnt think would look right, to make a real good looking scoot. So let us know!

Headlights aren't for looks, anyway. They're on there so you can see at night. The standard-housing 5" on my 'Train looks like a bicycle light and works worse. I'm hanging a 7" HID on it in a Headwinds Standard Bullet (blacked out) and it will look fine and work great...

Bob, it's cheaper to put an H4 100/80 watt bulb in the stock shell.

Well if anyone wants to buy a used headlight shell for a Fatboy let me know. I installed it tonight, and then took it off. Looked like a chrome basketball on the front of the bike.
