Love my Liberty.
Dislike the poor headlight performance!

Does anyone have a solution to adding better night lighting and overall visability to the Liberty?

Not easy to mount aux light on it.
Or I have just not found the right ones.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers

I have this headlight in my Buddy 125 and my Yamaha C3. It only draws 28 watts, and throws a shitload of light: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2251832774427561.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.65c71802xW1YPJ&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa
28W LED on the Left, stock 35W on the right

Another vote for that bulb, if it fits (size H4). AC/DC, and the ribbon cooling design minimizes the depth of the bulb and removes the need for a cooling fan, which complicates many LEDs' installations.

Do you ride.much at night?...ever get complaints from your LED which is not capable of being properly 'aimed' and focused by your stock headlight bucket?
O.S.

To replace your headlight bulb with an LED bulb has usually led to bright, unfocused flood of white light which is an irritant to those you share the road with. Have read of a bulb which doesn't have this problem. Most do.
I get that you're not happy with your stock Liberty headlight.
Each of my rides start in full dark...and I find my Liberty's stock headlight to be great, compared to the other 3 scooters I've owned.
Do I ride unknown roads at speed in the dark?
Nope. One's speed is the key to safe night riding, I find.
Hope you find what you're looking for.

Perhaps the OP's headlight needs to be aimed better.
