I would (and will be) going with a 5 3/4 myself. I think the 4" might look to small with the wideglide front end. Just my opinion.

Sorry if this does not help you completely (I don't know the part number) but there is a big bullet head-lamp from HD that looks awesome on night trains and street bobs.

Good luck man.

Mimo.
