I just started running a 100/90 W lamp from J&P. Part # 3100404. And a headlight modulator from these folks.

Liked it so much, I did it on both my Sporty, and FX. Even put the Tailblazers on both bikes.

Won't running a 90/100 simply fry your wires ?

Been running them in both bikes for 2 years now. Only thing fryin is the eyes of oncomin drivers. But they don't ever complain. The modulator cycles the light 4 times per second from %17 to %100 current. Sure lights up the road in the dark though. 100W will reach on out there.
