MT-01 Headlight - www.Motorcyclebuilders.net

Anybody know where I can order an MT-01 Headlight? I ordered one on ebay but it wasn't complete. It's missing the back mounting assembly. I'm having a hard time finding another one and would like to get a complete headlight unit with headlight and mounting assembly and keep the headlight I currently have as a backup as it seems impossible to find another one. If you do know where to get just the mounting assembly let me know - something is better than nothing.
Thanks.

i think that you should give the yamaha dealership a call if you haven't done that already. i think that it's not that expensive to buy the brackets from them. i bought a complete xt660r headlight from the dealership and that cost me about 200 usdollars. so i imagine that just the brackets for the MT01 headlight won't be that expensive.

tried to find some on the ebay.de for you but couldn't find any,

Thanks for the suggestion Markus but the problem is that the MT-01 is not sold in the USA. If you know of a European Yamaha Dealership where I could order it online I would really appreciate the info.

FYI - I am wanting this headlight to change out the stock headlight on my Ducati Monster. If someone out there has one and wants to make a trade then maybe that would also be an option.

BTW - I don't know if you've seen the MT-01 headlight before. I don't need brackets as I plan on using some replacement carbon fiber ones. What I need is the back assembly of the headlight which also serves as the mounting assembly on the MT-01. I plan on making some modifications to this piece so I can mount the headlight to the brackets I am getting.

I have the front chrome/glass piece but am missing the black piece on the back of the headlight. Hopefully you can see what I'm talking about from the picture of an MT-01 below:

Dude, you rock. Thanks.

I went ahead and bought it as soon as I saw it. Then when I went to pay I found out that she only ships to Germany and Austria. I've emailed asking if she would ship to the US and for the cost. If not could I have it shipped to you and then pay you to ship it to me? Thanks again.

[edit]
Just noticed that your in Sweden and not Germany/Austria. Hopefully she will not have any issue with sending it to my home in the US.
