I installed  Truck-lite in my BSA's.  unfortunately this 7" headlamp will not fit in the slightly smaller R65 headlamp.

The trucklites are a miracle on the BSA.  They do not care about polarity and the view down the center of the road is brilliant.  Plus I am seeing the deer starting at 25 degrees left and right.

I think I bought the 70c for the two BSAs.

The only down side of the Trucklite is the plastic lense seems soft and easily scratchable.  So I intend to get the 3m protective film from Tourtech or Twisted Throttle for the two lamps have on the 71 THunderbolt and the 69 Rocket 3.

I wish they made a 6-volt version.  :-/
