Topic: Oops! Forgot something.

[34barab]

Finishing up a 750 refurbish.  Just got back all the painted parts, which look gorgeous!  While trying to remount the headlight bucket, I discovered that I misplaced/lost the two headlight mount collars, part number 61302-300-000, used on 69 through 76 750's.  See item 13 in attached diagram.

I'd like to avoid the EBay price of $18 each!  If I were any kind of machinist, I could probably make them for a couple of dollars.  Hoping that a forum member has a couple collecting dust they wouldn't mind parting with. Of course I'm willing to pay.  Thanks

How about finding a piece of metal tubing the right size and cutting two pieces off?

Should be able to find a spacer like that at the hardware store

You can get a complete set for less from Yamiya750. Shipping and ev customs on top of that,

Then add everything you else your bike wants! :-)
If the rim around headlight is bad, DSS sell a complete aftermarket set for not that much.

Don't have them but would just add that those and part #15 are pretty important if you don't want to crack the headlight bucket. IF you've got a salvage place nearby they might be littered with them -- in the yard in Phoenix plastic disintegrates in the sun and the guys at the yard just give them away if you need them.

  The ones he needs do not have that collar,they are just a 'tube'. The collar one go where the screws hold the chrome headlight ring.

Good news! I managed to get what I needed.  Just to be clear, they are the non-collared metal spacers that fits into the winker stem hole on each side of the headlight bucket.  Many thanks to all for your feedback.
