Headlight for GL1000 1978
« on: June 18, 2018, 05:57:02 AM »
Asking for a friend.  Is the headlight for GL1000 1978 the same CB750 used from 1970 to 1978?  He is trying to replace the sealed beam.

The way Honda build bikes back than, I think it is a pretty safe bet that they are the same.  Anybody can confirm that?

Thanks

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.

I recall the lamp on my 77 GL looking the same as the one on my 77 CB550.

Thank you, I know the headlight even matches my jeep 7" headlight, at least the back of the bulb, did not bother to check the light pattern on that one :)
