Hi Bob,
The reflector/lens asembly is available from any number of suppliers. As
mentioned J.C. Whitney, also try Dennis Kirk (www.denniskirk.com),
Chaparral (www.800-841-2960.com), Parts-is-Parts
(www.parts-is-parts.com) and Motorcycle Accessory Warehouse
(www.mawonline.com). Usually best to buy one specifically made for
motorcycle use as the pattern of the light is different. Bosch, Cibie,
Anteroche (spelling?), SEV Marchal, and Carello all make effective
units. I like the beam of the SEV most though. PIAA sells excellent
bulbs (they may also sell the reflector) as do the other sources - a lot
of auto parts stores carry the H4 bulbs too. Hope this helps,

Charlie

Charlie,OK this is something new then Charlie. What are you talking
about? I only know about the car headlight you can get at auto
stores. Where can I get the reflector and the separate bulb? Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob,
Nope, I just carry the little H4 headlight bulb. The
reflector assembly is a separate piece. Cheers,

Charlie
