    Now - my bike came with the round headlight, so I've just kept it as-is - but I've always liked the "streetfighter" style headlights (with or without the fairing) - here's a good site that has a bunch of examples:

    Check out this thread for the GPZ fairing.

    Here's a question for you XJ'ers that have round headlights, is there a mess o' wires behind the headlight assembly? The headlight bucket for the rectangular headlights houses a rat's nest of wires. So for us that might be interested in converting to a round headlight, we'd need to know if the round assembly would hold all this wiring.

    Yes the round head lights have a bunch of wires behind them. I would think what wires fit behind a rectangular would easily fit behind a round light.
