Found this thread:"headlight pics" ,it's not the one I was looking for but has some good pictures.Check out the bike with the black fatboy headlight.

I installed the Harley Bullet Headlamp



I replaced the H4 bulb with the much brighter Sylvania H4ST, it looks great. I installed it opposite of the pic above, with the lamp base leaning forward not backwards. It is shown in my sig with the HD detachable windshield. There is also a 2" tank lift here.

This setup (windshield, fork bag, lift) produces an extremely smooth ride, no buffeting at all. I am 5'9".

7" Fatboy headlight would look awesome on a fatbob instead of that gawdawful dual headlight setup they come with.

Guy's thanks for all the input and pics! Your right rawhide, DougM's headlight looks great! Do you know what kind or what it's off? Thanks again!

Got mine off Custom Chrome, i made up a stainless bracket to sit it back towards the headstock, but i believe J&P do one that attatches to the bottom tree as per standard.

Here is a 7" headlight on a 2007 Street Bob. It is off a 2005 Heritage and is pretty much plug and play

According to his post it's off a fatboy and he bought it on ebay and had it powdercoated.Look at the members list under the d's,he is on page 120 if you want to pm him.I like cornishman's and Keeg's also,probably get one for mine this winter,gives the bike that big roadburner look.
