Help with headlight ID

Hello,
I just bought this bike..Long time bike rider/dragracer..This bike had the left side bulb out so I thought I`d replace it with one I had..But this looks like some kind of conversion..It`s a long skinny bulb with the wires coming off it and it, and it looks like a relay is plugged into the socket that a regular stock bulb would plug into..What is it that I should order?
 
Obviously I have some kind of conversion and it`s out dated..I only have one head light out of 2 working so at least I can ride..I gotta get one of the bulbs out and see if there is any numbers on it...
 
Sounds like a hid bulb . There is a seperate ballast that plugs into them. I would assume any h4 hid bulb will plug into the ballast.
Thats what I was wondering...When I first got it I thought it had the regular Halogen 3 prong bulb and went ahead and bought a set..Looking down into the front fairing and seeing all the wires I freaked out...Looking on ebay they just show the bulb with no wiring so It is hard to figure out whats what..But I guess its a given that the wiring is attached to the bulb.. Thanks for the reply...
 
So I bought a set of bulbs that have the same wires coming off the bulb,plugged right into the existing wires.Cranked up the bike...NOTHING.. So is the stock headlight bulb socket still there... I`d rather just have the stock bulbs..
