Will the headlight reflectors and ring from a 750/850 standard fit a xs1100 housing? My F came with a Special headlight and I want a stock square one. The one on the F is in nice shape, but not what i want.

These parts aren't shown as being the same, so I'd say no. They are starting to turn up on EBay so they're not as hard to find now as they were a year or so ago...Fast, Cheap, Reliable... Pick any two

I will say that the ring on my 850 is exactly the same size as the ring on my 1100 MNS. I actually stole parts from the 1100's headlight to put in the 850 since I use the Windjammer now.1980 XS850SG - Sold

I have the headlamp off of my 78 if you are interested, but I re-used my mounting hardware. The lamp itself is complete however, bucket, ring, screws and adjusters, and in fine condition.
No charge either, just gotta figure out how to get it from me to you whithout costing me.
