The CB1100 Community Forum

I don't know about you but I'm not a great fan of the modern clear headlamp lens glasses used on current bikes and wonder if it's possible to change the glass for something more '70's like i.e. with some pattern and ridges etc.

Here's a picture I found somewhere from the Tokyo Bike Show of a CB1100 with what appears to be a more retro looking glass. Does anyone know if there's a Honda part # for this or similar that would be a direct replacement?

I would love to get my hands on those turn lights! The headlight glass does look better with a pattern!

Wow, that would add nicely to mine. Looks nice, I'm in. Someone mail Mr.T

That would look great on my stock bike, but it would definitely be appropriate on Ack's. Turn signals go well with it.

I like my clear lens. When I first looked at the new cb I saw that clear lens. . But keep up the good threads

That IS that same light we have. The lens is clear just like ours.





I don't think these are quite as clear, but I can take a close up pic head on if need be. All if what you are seeing in that first pic is from the housing, not the lens.
The H4 bulb would not put out the correct pattern with a refracting lens like the old style sealed beam headlights have.

The term you're looking for is fluted.
