The GS1000 already has an H4 bulb from stock. If you want more brightness, slam in something like a 9003/H4 Silverstar bulb and call it done.Ed
To measure is to know.

NOT ALL, my 82 GS850G had a sealed beam also, some PO may have converted it but it does happen. I found my H4 conversion on Ebay for less than 20 bucks including shipping.
Cheers

I'll second Candlepower. I replaced my stock reflector that was dull and have been very happy with it. I used the Narva Range Power + 50 bulb. Since I changed my R/R to a CompuFire, I haven't had to change a bulb since. That's going on three years now instead of every three or four months.http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...ine=1440711157'78 GS1000E, Dyna-S ignition, Dyna Green Coils, K&N pods, Delkevic SS 4-1 exhaust, Dynojet Stage 3 jet kit, Russell SS Brake Lines, Progressive suspension, Compu-Fire series Regulator 55402 and Advmonster cree LED headlight conversion.

You would think that if it were out of stock permanently, they would remove it from the website.

I just tried to look through their headlight catalog and was a bit surprised, and dismayed, to find that you have to be a Facebook member to view the catalog.
So much for shopping at Candlepower.

True, you don't want a car light, if possible, but neither one of the lights shown on that page was a car light.

They are brighter, but their lifetime is shorter than the standard h-4
