Default Headlight for the nighttrain??????

What kind of aftermarket headlight or headlight shells are people running on their nighttrains?? Looked at the harley 5 3/4 bullet and the 4 1/2 bullet can't decide which one. Any pics of any non-stock headlight setups would be much appreciated

my headlight is off of a 06 deuce. i powdercoated it black but left the deep trim ring chrome then turned the mount 180 degrees so it pushes the light more forward. you can find them for a fraction of the price of a new headlight. check out my photo gallery for pics, sorry my photobucket is **** up.

I got mine from EasternPC on Ebay.. I think its the Viper, its a 5 3/4 also.. The Harley one looks better, but not for the over 200.00 more price tag...
