Default Headlight for Rocker

Hey guys. I am really trying to re-do my rocker. So far I have done a lot and have almost come to the end of what I want to do for now. I really want a badass bullet headlight. I was sondering if anyone had put one on or if they knew what would fit and what mounting bracket I may need.

thanks

I will post pics as soon as I get my rims in. They should be on around the first of the year. I got 100 spoke radial laced wheels on their way. The hub and rim will be powdercoated pacific blue and the spokes will be chrome. I got a 21" up front and 18 in the back. I'm also in the process of chopping my rear fender and getting my new one up front painted. Like I said it should all be done right around the new year. I'll post as soon as its done. Hopefully its gonna be badass but don't possibly see how it couldn't.

Did it have a wiring harness that plugged in or did you have to cut and splice the wires? Sorry for all the questions, but I really want this done and since your bike looks great, apparently your the man to ask. Thanks for all the info
