 |

Greetings gents! The lens on the front of my headlight is a bit "challenged", and as it is a sealed assembly I am wondering where it was originally sourced.
Any assistance would be very much appreciated!

| Not this this is going to help, but myself and 2bims been trying to find out that very same question for years. Is very similar to some Suzuki lights, but not the same unfortunately. |

| As Vort says...we've each come up with what Maybe its from ...only for the other to then say No theres this bit.....etc etc....Doesnt help with marks on it as its logo'd up with a "b" for bimota.....I do have a full spare headlight unit, lens and back box...as you say...the lens is sealed to the box unit...wouldnt try and release it anyhow as its perspex...fair enough if its broken....but not so to remove a good one...For searching the DB5 headlight is also same as DB6 and DB11 |

| Yeh...thats got the same code as my 5R headlight unit...its an E13...ehich is a Euro lamp...with flat beam...so fine for L/H or R/H driving/riding...was fortgetting that the Tesi had the same unit.......Probably not a bad price seeing as it has the bulbs, wiring and backing plugs/bolts etc....And it would save me having to sell my spare unit......... |

Bob. At Bimota Spirit tells me that the headlight unit is specifically for the DB5, he is apparently unaware of the other applications. It seems to be a Bimota only part at any rate. He has both a new one and a used one so I have a source.
