Default Headlight

Hello, I have a 2001 road king classic, my headlight appears to have 2 bulbs, can some tell me what the small lower “bulb” is?

That's known as a 'position lamp'. Essentially it's a type of parking light. They're required in some European countries. Google "Harley Position Lamp" for details..

It shows up in wiring many HD wiring diagrams.
