eddd Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 The glass is not replaceable. You'll need to find a used headlight unit. don't faint at the price The good thing is that you have some time. Seal the hole with a dab of silicone, and the start watching ebay and IBMWR Marketplace where you can post a WTB ad. Link to comment
AnotherLee Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Does windshield repair work on these? Link to comment
indy Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Beemer Boneyard is all sold out. I highly recommend a Cee Baileys head light guard to fit over the headlight glass. I had a rock bust the guard on my '02 RT but not a scratch on the headlight. Indy Link to comment

1100RTGuy Posted July 21, 2015 Author Share Posted July 21, 2015 I have a headlight unit and was wondering how much plastic to remove to replace the unit. As soon as it happen I got on eBay and found one. Link to comment
MontanaMark Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Sorry you had to learn the hard way. To get to the light, you have to remove the side panels, then the nose. There are 4 Phillips screws that hold the nose on the frame. It's pretty straightforward. Cheers, Mark Link to comment
JaySc Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Maybe consider a HID kit while you're in there? Assuming you don't already have one, that is. I'll second the lamp guard. I don't have one on the current bike, but have been glad I had them on previous vehicles. Link to comment
Tri750 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Be careful buying a used headlight. Some have broken off tabs from accidents that you won't find out about until you get it Link to comment
