  • Front Lighting for Standard

    I have the following parts that were removed at the dealer when the bike was new so that a Windjammer could be installed. These are as good as NOS, been wrapped for over 30 years, not even polish marks in the chrome.

    Headlight bucket
    Bucket trim ring
    Headlight (original, not H4 but I can throw one in)
    Complete turn signals - mounting bracket, stems, heads, lenses, and all original hardware.
    Reflectors - for mounting the bucket to the ears

    Make an offer.
    Low ball bids will be ignored. I've seen what some of these items go for on eBay when sold alone, never seen a full set like this on there. This is everything for the front except the ears, from a bike that never saw more than the showroom floor before the parts were removed at the dealer.
    I currently also have a Pacifico fairing slated for the same bike as these parts, just haven't decided which way to go with the rebuild this winter. Until then, if you want these parts make it worth my time. Costing me nothing to keep them, highly doubt they will go down in value.
    Will consider your fairing or tour pak (Vetter or Yamaha) for partial/full trade. Lowers a plus.

      There is currently 1 NOS headlight trim ring for a standard listed on eBay, $99.99.
      How often are there ANY of the mounting brackets listed? Not to mention a pair that are NOS condition.
      Not that I would expect to get what the items are listed for on eBay. But I would expect to be somewhere in the neighborhood of what I've seen these parts go for.
      Nobody has a Yamaha or Vetter tour package they want to strip from their bike?
      I may be interested in other items, partial trade either direction depending on what you have.

      I will post pics shortly.

        OK, I was a little mistaken on what I had.
        The trim ring IS NOS.
        Front signals come with both lenses.
        Also have the rear stems, like NOS.
        Prepare to lust! LOL

          Those look really nice. Those pieces that connect the front signals to the trees are almost never found. Looks like there is a pretty good deal there to me. Wish I could afford it, I'd really like to be able to take my fairing off at times, but right now those parts are WAY out of my price range.
