QUESTION TO EVERYONE WHO CAN GET TO YOUR BIKES. My garage door is frozen shut in ice. Yes you lucky Bas#@$% 's. What is the size of our headlight. I'm thinking its bigger then 5 3/4, may even be 6 1/2. I'm guessing the length is about 5 inches. Reason thinking of buying a replacement and want to go to the 7 to 9 inch long, but not sure of the lens size. I've seen some on Demon cycle and they say 4 3/4, but I'm not sure how that compares to ours.

If I remember right the housing is almost 7" across and 6" or so long. Isn't there a bunch of junk crammed inside the headlight too?

7 INCH WOULD NOT SURPRISE ME. THE STRYKER HEADLIGHT IS BIGASS UGLY. 6 inch long seems long to me, but it could be deceiving with a 7 inch lense if thats the case..

Bought this and think it's to small. Haven't found one I like yet in black.

Just measured.

Its a 5-3/4" lamp. The housing has a 7" diameter and 5-3/4" deep.

Thanks. Thats what I needed 7 inch. I knew it was bigass big. So 4 3/4 or 5 3/4 by 7 or 9 inch long would look alot smaller.

My new headlight is 6" x 9" retrofitted with a projector lamp for a proper HID setup. Its almost done. Will post pics when finished.

 

[MY LIFE]

Great I'd like to see that. Please post your parts numbers when you do.

Can't wait to see that Nate. I just put an HID in our stock housing (what a PITA with all the wires crammed in there). Where did you order the light and projector?

 

[Slcsmasher]

I'm thinking about getting the Harley Davidson LED headlight. I should be buying the 7", right?

 

[SmokenJoe]

WOW, yes 7" but that price WOW..........why not just buy a HID set up?

Mylife I just measured my light it is about 4 3/4" across and 6" long. I believe I have one of the smallest that I have seen on the forum that is actually mounted.

Just found out today that Kuryakyn released their Phase 7 LED headlight. Looks a lot better than the Phase 6. And it's still $200 less than the HD.

Hey Jester 4 3/4 ? Is that the light you got when you bought the Stryker? Does anyone else think that this is not a original light, or have they changed the headlight since 2011?

 

[jester624]

Mylife, mine is not the stock light.

I have the light from demonscycles.com

 

[MY LIFE]

Ok that makes more sense. So do you feel the light is to small?

 

[SmokenJoe]

If you like that light, I have a deal for ya.
