Headlight Ears?.....

#1 PostAuthor: Garry.L » Wed Sep 12, 2012 5:07 pm

Going to stick these on the Bay but need conformation on what they're from....

Was told they were from a Z thou which I thought was the same as the Z1(?) but while these are the same length and style as my Z1 the actual 'ears' are around 1"longer...

Any thoughts.....

Cheers Fella....

These are defo period, the chrome isn't that 'blingy' stuff like the repro items and the insides have that 'patena' that only old Z headlight ears have.

Garry, I think they are from a H1 or H2 triple. I have an old set of these and just assumed they were Kawasaki triple.... RB would know!
When first reading your query I thought you were saying the they were 1 inch longer, not wider, if you get me!
