AndyYam · Guru

ebay or yam bits. I picked up an pattern headlight form yambits for 25 quid i think it was. This was for a DTR though, are thy the same? You need just the light not the cowel?

Try:

Wemoto
Ebay
Yambits

MATE! I struggled finding one. Few peaple on here might have one knocking about. Perhaps if you posted this in the correct section you might have better luck. Failure to that, gumtree is a good place to look. Scrappies too.

Otherwise cause you do have the sexy dtx how about polisport or acerbis replacement? You can get some real sick ones that go well for the dtx

This sort of look! Especially if you get the matching hand guards it'll look sweet!

ay would offer you a dtx headlight which i got with the dtx sm setup and other bits but its got a crack in it, what are the problems of having a cracked headlight then, gotta be something for it to be a fail in a mot, if its not that bad and you can live with it cant you take it to a known garage in your area who doesnt 'spot' everything wrong with the bike when doing the m.o.t, if you know what i mean, ;)

I was taken there by my dad and hid dad took him there pollards has been there years and years and years lol . we used to ride or drive there just for a day trip as inside they used to have and restore real old classics and had lines of old bikes bsa -triuph -ectt ect all like new for sale or just show so was like a bike musium .

just about all bikers around 100 miles radius know about pollards and the reputation for streight forward mot and repairs ..

some places with fail you on a bolt leaky seal or squiky shocker none of that there .. had bad shocker seals on one bike and he winked at me and said this had gators on when you came for mot DIDN'T IT ...I said yes it sure did..

take a ride out one day park out side and chances are there will be some one to chat to (other bikers) or who work there .
