Is there a correct way to take a tail light apart??
« on: April 29, 2012, 01:43:36 PM »
Save me before I tear it up!  ;D  I'm attempting to separate the reflector from the chrome base in my 750 tail light. Who has a trick how to do this? I don't wish to learn after the fact.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

You can't. It's crimped on and not meant to be taken apart. :(
Do you have a copy of the Honda Shop Manual or Parts List for your bike? Get one here:
