LED Headlight cb550
« on: October 08, 2023, 11:35:19 AM »
I can get a complete LED headlight for my cb550f. Can I fit it to the bike without any modifications? I don't want to modify wiring or fit relays , I am not good with electrical stuff.

No it’s the standard 1976 connector. I don’t know the name for it.
