Headlight: Aftermarket or Harley brand?

Installed the Sunpie LED light I bought from Amazon a few days ago and adjusted it according to the FSM. I run with the high beam and have noticed that when opposing traffic sees me coming they repeatedly move over slightly to their right side of the road. I only ride on two lane rural Nevada roads so I am very aware of an approaching vehicle's position in their lane. Would have to doubt that I am blinding anyone as no one has extended a middle finger to me yet. This is one very visible headlamp and even if it craps out in the next year I would still replace it with another Sunpie. Bright colored clothing is fine but some research shows that opposing motorists see the motorcycle's headlight first. Never ever going back to a front incandescent bulb system on a motorcycle. No comment on night performance as I don't ride at night anymore. Also gave up night flying in my little Cessna over the Sierra Nevada in the pitch dark. According to the very British Mr. Lucas also known as the "Prince of Darkness", "A proper gentleman does not motor about after dark." Love my new forward visibility!

Is this a bulb replacement, or what? I would like to do the same for the spots as well. Heck, if I can do a bulb replacement only, that would be great. Is that possible?
Seriously, this is new to me, and I welcome all inputs....

I have looked up "DK LED" ON their site, and cannot find anything for MC.

Had the TL7 and thought it illuminated great around the city and on the interstate. I was not so impressed on the real dark country roads in northern WI where theres no other lighting on the roads. Bought a Eagle lites led and couldn't be more happy on those same roads. Really lights up the night
