want to change bulb first[stock seems to be not so bright]then over winter change entire headlight assem. any suggestions on either/both?

 

I think the bob would look smoking hot with the 5 3/4 bullet light from HD. Here it is on my bike.

Cheers,

is it straight forward install? do you think it'll work with windshield?

 

It took me around 10 minutes to install it. If you are familiar with how to access the wiring underneath the tank, (very easy to do), then the install is a breeze. Let me know if you need info on accessing the wiring. I'm not sure about the windshield, as I dont have one.
Cheers,

After you swap out the headlight on your Street Bob, sell the stocker to some of the guys on the Sportster forum. The Bob light works great for those of us who want to get rid of the Sporty "eyebrow". Here's one on my bike:

 

Here is a (not so good ) picture of the HD headlight with a windshield.

 

Depending on the color of the bike the Head Light Trim Ring from HD might be an alternative.

It looks good on my Dyna IMHO. More photos here: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/members/69537-rowo-albums-97-2007-dyna-street-bob.html.

 

5 3/4 from Harley

I dunno...the bullet lights don't appeal to me. I like the more vintage look of the stocker. If it were me, I'd buy a better light that had the same look.

 

I like the 5 3/4 Harley one although it is a little bit of a pain to remove the tank to change it out.
