Headlights
The stock headlight on my 2007 1200L just plain sucks!![:'(][:'(][:'(]I work 2nd shift and have a 35 mileinterstate journey home. I can see okay ifI use the high beam or have a car out ahead of me, but when I get out on my own I can't seesquat.I have a hell of a time spottingthe road kill and highway gators!There has to be a better aftermarket lamp available. I thought about going with a tri-light assembly like the bigger bikes have, but I haven't seen a Sporty equipped with this option (anyone have a pic?). I am open to all suggestions and input. Thanks.

RE: Headlights
5 3/4" tri-bar light made by Wyatt Gatling, I only use the low beam and it is bright enough. You have to drill a hole on the lower triple tree to mount it(except custom model).

RE: Headlights
you can buy aftermarket bulbs that are a lot brighter than you stock bulb. the industry number should be a 9003 at lease for the '05 and '06 models.I have a Wagner bright lite and silverstar makes a good one also. just make sure that the amp and wattage is the same has yours. I heard that if you use a higher amp or wattage you can melt your wiring.
