well, i've looked at the acerbis cyclops and i sweat the asymetrical headlights off the bmw rockster and k1200r.  so i've been browsing around and ran across this...

and this...

or alternatively, i am thinking about getting two different size plain round lamps and seeing if i can mount them up to look interesting.

buy a headlight bracket and headlight from a gs500f... it looks awesome even without the side fairing

the second of those two (P-4000 QUATTRO) might look cool, but I think the first one will look goofy.

I bet those would be bright. Don't know how you'd mount them to not look goofy though. The first one's ugly. The second one just looks like it's made for a car

Well I was also thinking about a new headlight (acerbis blitz), does anyone know how hard they are to wire?

i like the 2 different sized headlight idea.  i've seen it before inside a fairing but idk about it being naked.  do a photochop and see what u think.  the two you linked to are horribly ugly however i would chose those in a heartbeat over the acerbis headlights.  yuck.

I also think that they would look out of place on the GS.  Although it is kind of hard to be certain without seeing the things in real life.  Also, mouting them vertically might be an interesting idea.
