Can anyone remember the exact model BMW that uses the same headlight glass as the Monster?
Thanks

Monster headlamp glass: BMW R100S, part no. 63121358147. Bosch part numbers for Monster headlight glass & reflector (not available separately from Ducati) are 1305604904 (Glass) and 1305304903 (Reflector) They are not cheap (about £45 and £60 respectively) but less than a complete unit.

If the glass fits does that mean the collar that holds it does too? Or is the screw thread different? My collar is all rusty and a BMW replacement may come in cheaper than the double headlights...

I would think the rim would be the same - best thing to do is find a BMW and have a lookee see!

I have a 98 M600 dark, and on the lovely roads here Cork, Ireland it was inevitable that a rock would punch a nice hole in my headlamp. However thanks to the sage advice from this forum I was able to save 282.47euro, the cost of replacing the entire headlamp unit, since for some unknown reason Ducati won't sell those parts separately. Moto-Bins provided the exact replacement Bosch headlamp glass, including the seal for 40euro/28sterling including shipping to IRL. I'm absolutely delighted!

That saving's nearly enough for a new set of cans... :burnout:

A sentence with the words 'wallets' and 'moths' in it springs to mind after reading this thread http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/contrib/ed/laugh.gif
