Front head light

As I am planning to use my WM20 at night also my problem is the blackout light as you can see very little in the dark with is there a headlight with removable blackout as I want to keep the bike looking right

Regards

Re: Front head light

Carl, you can try to find a model 1945 blackout mask, or modify a lorry one.





The lorry ones are Butler I believe, and are somewhat similar, but smaller in diameter.

Cheers,

Re: Front head light

Even with that mod you won't see much in the dark. I have tried the experiment and it gets scary.
not so bad on a moonlit night but its the oncoming dazzle thats a problem,plus you'll not get seen.

remember that the original spec said the reflector had to be blacked as well.

Personally I'd say its a daft idea, probably illegal if you are in the Uk, but the experience of driving the bike into a ditch or another interesting but painful halt to your onward progress will provide an authentic experience.

But it'll look right.
