Searching for some parts with no luck

Sam
I just removed a vindicator fairing from my 1982 CB750K in order to get it as close to original as possible.  Found a headlight bracket on eBay.  The headlight bracket has an inside distance of 7.5 inches between the mount arms.  Having trouble finding the entire headlight assembly and both front turn signal mount brackets.  Can anyone direct me in the direction to acquire them or know of any good part places.

Thanks,
Sam

7.5'' sounds about right since these bikes use the standard 7'' headlight. If you're needing a bucket Emgo (which is probably what vintagecb750.com is selling- i cant know for sure) headlight buckets/with headlight go for around $50 and are very nice quality pieces. I had one on a bike just recently and was very happy with it. But...the stock headlight bucket on these bikes has several molded tabs inside them to secure all of the wiring inside them since that is the main junction point of the whole wiring harness.

Ebay is actually gonna be your best bet on this. Some of these parts may be available from a Honda dealer, but we know that is gonna be very pricey. Sometimes it takes awhile to hunt these parts down.

Post up a "wanted" ad in the classifieds here on the forum. Lots of guys around here sitting on some old left over parts. Good luck!
