Some use this,

Or you could put in a xenon light with ballast.
Only it's a good idea to wire in a timing relay to have the light go on after the bike is started.

Did it on my 12s and works perfect!

I just purchased an off road 18W flood LED light. Puts out 1800 lumes or so.

You can wire it right up to the stock lines. I'll be fabing a simple bracket and light shield to create an upper cutoff for oncoming traffic. I'll post pictures up once it's done.
