Re: Head lamp unit

£106 for a headlight from a dealer is very good IMHO.

It's worth keeping an eye on ebay. There are some on there at the moment which work out at about £60ish delivered. Failing that, a national parts search or a local breakers should find one.

Good luck.

Re: Head lamp unit

Bargain. One of my previous bikes the not complicated unit was £300 from a dealer or a tenner from breakers...
