LIGHTING AND ACCESSORIES

Headlamp

A LUCAS type SSU-700-P headlamp is fitted. The replacement part number is 50945-A.

It has a panel mounted on its top, retained by three screws, in which is the main switch

and ammeter and it also supports the cable harness. See Illustration 35. The main

bulb has a double filament. One filament provides the main driving beam and the other

a dipped beam, brought into operation by the dipping switch on the left handlebar as may

be required. The pilot bulb is the same as used in the rear lamp and is mounted outside

the reflector, illumination being arranged through a small circular window in the reflector.

The reflector and front glass are made up as one assembly and the two components are

not sold as separate spares.

The lamp is fitted with a pre-focus main bulb. The design of the bulb, and of its

holder, is such that the bulb is correctly positioned in relation to the reflector and no

focussing is required when a replacement bulb is fitted.

To remove the headlamp rim and light unit

Slacken the screw on the top of the lamp body at the front, pull the rim outward from the

top and, as the front comes away, lower slightly to disengage the bottom tag from the

lamp shell. Twist the back shell in an anti-clockwise direction and pull it off, the bulb can

then be removed. The light unit is secured to the rim by means of spring clips.

These can be disengaged from the turned up inner edge of the rim by pressing with a

screwdriver blade and, at the same time, working away from the edge.
