Best Round headlight

For those of you have gone down the road of make your hawk a street fighter, what is the best round light and mounting hardware to use?



Also, does any one know the size of the forks?

I prefer the round headlight look myself which is why I went with the 599/Hornet headlight.
Another Honda option is the 919/Hornet but the headlight lens is rather plain.
I made my own headlight ears using dirtbike front number plate rubber bands ( XR650R ) and ABS plastic.

Let me know if the pics are enough, if not I'll take some more.

I built my Cagiva with a huge Yamaha secca headlight, 8 or 9 inches in diameter, and it looks cool. But they are hard to find.
My GS500 was built with a SV650 headlight, Looks great, easy to come by.

Pics are great. This is a huge help. I checked ebay and I could not find anything. Where is the best place to buy these?

The headlight, any headlight off e-bay, the rubber mounts from your Honda dealer.
The ABS material from a local plastics supplier and let your creativity be your guide.

There are also numerous companies that sell nice, but expensive mounts. Usually made from billet.
I'm just too cheap to go that route.
