The RD350B headlight beam size is 5 3/4 or 6 3/8 ? What beam options we have other than the Yambits halogen unit ?

Economy Cycle sells two lights for the RD, one is out of stock.  I just bought the one they do have in stock and could not be happier with it..  As usual from Economy!!

I definitely will be buying the headlight from Economy. Been toying around with the idea for years, and now that I have a little paint experience, I am going to bite the bullet and paint to match. I disassembled my original and added a halogen bulb with 55W high beam. I don't like the beam pattern or the load on the charging system

Guys, 2T fan lives in India, where they drive on the LEFT side of the road (well, are supposed to, at least) Just like Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Japan and UK, to mention some other countries.
So, in order to get the correct low beam pattern, he should get his headlight from one of those countries.
I got the H4 kit from Economy, and I like it. Especially because the lens is Lexan or some other plastic, so a lot lighter than the OEM headlight. Now if I could find a suitable carbon fiber headlight bucket, and a titanium instead of chrome ring  :whistle:
