Default Headlamp Bulb

I have a 08 Rocker C and I'am looking to upgrade my headlamp bulb so it is brighter without having to do any mods for a brighter light.
Has anyone here upgraded there light yet?
If so what did you replace the stock bulb with?

Did the PIAA H4 Super White 60/55 watt bulb but kept getting a year out of them then
a failure when I didn't need it. Went to Sylvania Silverstar Ultra 9003 for cars at half the
price and get the same performance and they last waaaaay longer. Never went to high
wattage bulbs as I know MOCO doesn't give you a lot of extra room with switches and
wiring as far as current goes. Several of my buds have also switched over and just +'s.

The dealership has replacement hi intensity bulbs that replace the standard bulb. Just plug it in.
