Need a new stock headlight for my '79 CB750K. Ebay too expensive for used.

Do you need the whole headlight, or just the bulb?

You should be able to get that at any autoparts store. Or check out vintagecb750.com They even have the halogen upgrade unit.

That's what Tools is saying. Look here: http://www.vintagecb750.com/products/5/electrical/40/headlamps-headlamps-brackets-headlamp-parts
They have just the bulb but it is $40. Or take your old bulb into an autoparts store and see if they got a 7inch bulb that matches.

Or you can get the h4 conversion kit which uses h4 bulbs available most anywhere, and for much cheaper, it just fits in where the old sealed bulb would fit, you still use your original trim rings and bucket, and everything. You just swap the old sealed bulb for a new bulb that uses replaceable h4.
The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!
