new headlight
I have a 2010 Sportster 48 which I have done quite a bit to already. (Tank raise, ignition coil/switch relocation, drag bars, bar end mirror, speedo relocation, no front fender and air cleaner and pipes with dyno tuned supertuner. The bike is almost done, except for the headlight, It's just to small. I'm looking for something a little bigger, either longer, or bigger diameter. Haven't been able to find anything yet that I really like. Not sure if I want one that sits low, closer to the front tire, or something that sits high, like an old springer. Also want something old fashion looking to keep with the style of the bike. Just wondering if anybody out there has come across anything that you think might look good. Also looking for a bolt on springer seat. Not the loop springs that Harley sells, but more beehive coil springs with a small padded seat. Open to suggestions so please let me know, Thank you.

I pesonally also think the headlight is a bit to small,Some guys on this forum have put on larger lights and it looks good.
I 'm just waiting to pick up a second-hand one and i'll do mine.

Lose the eyebrow and turn the headlight upside down. Make yourself a bracket and put the headlight bolt in it facing down.
Problem is...
You have a 48 and that doesn't have an eyebrow, right?
So, I dunno how you're gonna do it, but that's basically how Nightsters and Irons do it.
