    Do I have a missing part "headllight ring ct 70"

    Just got this bike recently, and before placing an order for a few little parts I was wondering if I have a broken headlight ring, I see this threaded hole
    The bike also came with black tape around the light, I dont want to remove the tape yet just because its holding fine
    but im guessing the chrome ring may have a mount for that screw to go into, and its broken???

    It looks like you need one of these ECONOMY VERSION OF (AFT051) OFF ROAD HEADLIGHT (HAS_BULB_&_SOCKET) (1003Q) for that headlight bucket. IIRC the newer CTs had a round headlight ring with no tab for a screw.

    there is another, slightly more expensive one on their site. I bought one and have been pleased with it.

    got that part in today, but its not the same
    It has 2 bulbs inside and the glass looks very crappy, very cheap
    it would fit and work, just not what I have

    mine have 2 tabs inside for the glass to turn left and right with some adjusting screw

    so I am just using the old one and taping it on

    this is what I need http://dratv.com/ctheadrim.html

    decided to take apart that new cheap light I got and was able to put my old glass into the ring buy slightly bending out those spring mount tabs to a hair softer

    I thiunk my light housing may be tweaked a touch, small gap lines where the chrome ring presses against
    unless im missing a gasket or something
    filled the gap with black silicon
    I may tape it on too just depends on how well it ends up fitting

    what I lost is the ability to turn the light left and right with the adjusting screw, but dont think I will miss that feature
    at least it has more of the stock look to it using the stanley glass
