Go to Ebay and just type 'harley halogen xenon.' $4.95 buys a super white bulb. Many listings and wattages from which to choose.

I went a step further. I typed halogen 100W.

My 2000 Road Glide came with "yellow" lights too. I replaced the 55W/60 stock lights with Halogen Xenons 90W/100, ( 2 in my Road Glide,) and have been very impressed. Super white, 5000K rated, (look blue when you're looking at the headlight,) and throws a swath of light very similar to my car's headlights. Never had that kind light previously on a motorcycle. I need that given that I ride to work at 5:30 in the morning from out in the country everyday.

They've lasted over 4 years now and over 60,000 miles. Because there were two on the Road Glide though, I calculated the extra draw: 100 watts divided by 12.5 volts = 8 amps x 2 bulbs = 16 amps. With a 20 amp fuse I have had no issues. And there is no heat damaged to my nacelles, plugs or wiring either.

So on a single headlight bike like yours, there should be no problems at all.

Coolest thing is that I got them on EBay for $8 total. (I figured I had nothing to lose by trying, and instead hit a home run.)

 

Has anyone upgraded to the 'Daymaker LED'? I can't find a chart with the output in watts or lumens.
Quote from "Agapsdiver" from the touring model section:

My orig. single Night Train bulb 60/45 watts drew 4 amps (low), 7 amps (high).
Stock Road Glide dual bulbs 60/45 watts drew 8.5 amps (low), 14 amps (high).
Dual OSRAM 100/80 watts drew 10.5 amps (low), 13.5 amps (high).
New dual LED’s draw 2.5 amps (low), 3.5 amps (high)

 

Sylvania silverstar very bright and cheaper than a LED HD

 

I bumped up to a higher wattage bulb. Cost was around 13 dollars.

Bulb, H4 Halogen, 80/100 watt. Osram/ Sylvania brand ($12.45)

See: http://www.germanautoparts.com/Hardware/Bulbs/H4


I am very happy with the difference, and no issues.

 

i put a headwinds on and that made a world of difference too. could be shape though too to project the light differently?

 

An Adjure Tri-Bar with the bulb that comes with it made a world of difference on my bike. About $80 through J&P.

 

I do think shape and internal reflector surface has alot to do with it. I bought a cheap chrome headlight from Demon Cycles ,(around $80). I wanted to keep the bar and sheild logo on my stock light so I put all my factory guts inside the new bucket ( also helped with not having to change plug). It is alot brighter inside this bucket, The bulb is recessed a little more and that gives it alot more reflective surface. I'm no scientist to give you the particulars, but I can tell you what works for me.

 

I use this on my Deuce, about $36 on Amazon. Sylvania silverstar Ultra at Autozone is around $20. and a lot brighter than yellow stock bulb.

 

Last year I changed stock bulb to a H4 Halogen, 80/100 watt. Osram/ Sylvania brand. I intend to change headlight to rid my bike of the stock set-up and may go for an LED type.

 

I put a HID Kit on my V-Rod, worked and matched well for that bike... Cost was under $45. Here is a link:
