Default Iron Headlight Options

Hey Everyone,

So I want to do something to the stock headlight on my iron I'm not crazy about the way it looks with the eyebrow ... any ideas or pics of what you have done to change it would be awsome ...

Thanks Matt

This is something that I definitely considered installing on my Iron..gets ride of the headlight brow and lowers the speedo!

Default two of my variations

2010 iron with stock light flipped and lowered to the lower tree.
you neeed to flip the glass portion upsidedown so your high/lowbeam is correct. the metal ring between the glass and housing needs to be flipped and turned around backwards. if done right you don't need to alter a thing permanently in the light. you need to fab a bracket to bolt to the tree for the light to bolt to. only have the one pic:




after changing the bars out i found the light too low. i moved it up above the factory position with this bracket i made from 3/16 sheet steel:




the wires will need extending to make it up, out this far and inverted.
a few poor cell pics of the new position:

If your search for "2010 Sportser" headlight options, you'll come up with a lot more choices.

Its not just an Iron.......Its a Sportster........

Besides going aftermarket - how many other stock options do you really have?
