So you mean standard headlights, but with an LED bulb, Interesting solution

I would like to use this one, a LED headlight

I used a cheap, under $50 LED headlight in my 2018 Scout, but it was the 5.75” bucket. Works fine, no CANBUS errors. Not the best low beam, it’s shaped like a smiley face, but the high beam reaches out a long way, lighting up signs at least a 1/4 mile down the road. When I convert to a 7” headlight, I will explore other types of conversions, including using a replacement LED bulb in a stock halogen reflector housing.

I like the idea of changing to a 7" led headlight. Anyone got a front angle view of this on their bike? I know classic auto parts places sell a vintage looking model T housing that is bottom mount with the big shell

Here you go, not a bad look, I chose the chrome headlight shell, but there are others that are black on black, black with a chrome ring, etc. The headlight mounting bracket I got from eBay for $12.99.

How do you like your Adaptive headlight? I’m thinking of using one in my 7” shell, let me know how well it works riding at night! Thanks!

Hi Charlie, I don't have an adaptive but a J W Speaker Dual Burn on the Scout, it gives me all the light I'd ever need. I have an adaptive on my R Nine T and TBH I don't notice any difference in beam pattern between the two.

Cool, I saw that @smartmike had one in his 7” shell, so i was curious… truthfully, my 5” LED replacement for the stock light, does better than the 7” I just installed. I’m looking for a better option for the 7” headlight, that won’t break my bank. 😳
