Head light Replacement Brand?

[Guest]

So i went with a cheap replacement head light, and got what i paid for.
the light spred pattern is terrible, and the high beam goes off to one side slightly.
I have a 5 3/4 inch head light, three prong, and I want to know what makes or brands have been found to be reliable.

Autopal euro conversion with an H4 (3 prong) bulb.

I got my 7" from eBay, and it's brilliant. The design looks old school and the beam pattern is wonderful. It also seems to be twice as bright as the stock Stanley sealed beam, with only a 5 watt increase.

Here's one for you: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/5-3-4...spagenameZWD1V

Its possibly a replacement for a car headlight....I believe the bike lenses are designed differently to cast light more directly in front of the bike, but the cars have an offset spread....the ebay link provided above seems to be a good, cost-effective option....when the original bulb supplied with it needs replacing, try an Osram Silverstar 55/60 H4 (from Europe, but available here on ebay etc)...I think you will like!

A Silverstar H4ST is a bright idea too. I just replaced my old burnt out bulb with one of these bulbs and it's great - incredibly bright and the same wattage as stock.
