nice street fighter headlights....

Sharkride · October 9th, 2015, 09:37 PM

so im on the fence about replacing all the fairings on my bike or just going to a street fighter look. my issue with going with a street fighter look is finding a good headlight that is bright and and wont melt like im hearing a lot of the cheap ones do. i seen a few that i really like but again the light is whats holding me back....
you guys have any ideas on custom headlights?

I've been hoarding a 7 inch chrome headlight with H4 bulb from an old Suzuki 850 GS. It's just a big, basic chrome headlight. I got it from a guy parting out the bike several years ago for about 10 bucks. I would imagine these buckets are not hard to find from MC salvagers and might be a better and cheaper alternative to the Chinese knockoffs and has a nice classic look.

Maybe look at the new Z-1000 headlight assembly, it looks like an angry Transformer face.

See if you can find a motorcycle salvage yard near you, see what they have in stock for cheap.

You can also get a 7" sealed bulb that'll plug n' play into anything that takes an H4 bulb (Do newgens use H4 bulbs?), provided you can get a headlight bucket for it. They're cheaper to buy at Autozone, made of glass, and only like $25 bucks. I picked one up with my rewards points

Or make your own headlight with LED bars!
