you will be better getting something like a bandit one off ebay rather then a new pattern one from a shop. you will normally find pattern ones have plastic lenses and will melt with a high outpub bulb. plus something like new bandits and cb1300 headlights have clear glass with the beam pattern in the reflector so look the nuts too!

Looks similar to the newer FZ6............same sort of shape to the one you have, which does look good.

A guy who SF his TRX on a Swedish forum looked at the Fz1 lamp first....but that was somwhere in the region of 5 times as expensive as the mt-03 one....
