With my battery drain fixed for now I was wondering if there is a large rectangular headlamp upgrade. I see across the bottom of he bulb it says "Motorcycle" so I am hesitant to put an Auto sealed beam in its place.

I think the '80 had the replaceable bulb in it. You can get a "superbright" LED to replace the halogen bulb. I've done it for my '79 Special and like it. Plenty of light, and less draw on the charging system.Ray Matteis

I use Auxito bulbs also. Just restored a CB900C and changed every bulb. Now the bike charges @ 14.5 volts.

Mine was replaced with a plain Jane Sylvania H2 bulb from the local auto parts store, the one already in there was an unidentified knock off of some kind and I can assure you it's quite bright.1980 XS1100G
