<![CDATA[DTX headlight cracked.]]>Hi all,

After storing the bike for roughly 4 years my bike is in need of a new headlight as the one installed has a crack spanning 2/3 of the lens and I’m worried this would cause an MOT failure. I’ve looked online and replacements don’t seem to be available anymore - I would ideally like to keep the bike as stock/ OEM as possible - has anyone else had to swap out a headlight and if so is there any other models that would fit ? I’m aware the RE would be a straight swap but I’m struggling to source one of these too.

Uk based and eager to get back on the road riding again.

Looks like there is one for sale on eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/117220896053?_skw=DT125re+headlight&itmmeta=01KTM8B5217RAZTYS7W99928FR&hash=item1b4ae8ed35:g:y7gAAeSwpAdqHbG7&itmprp=enc%3AAQALAAAA0GfYFPkwiKCW4ZNSs2u11xBZmLIU--K9J71U9lN1jJvKGElmcMKBjUzhn5JV3gvFr%2BI2mNwns0SlbUycS%2Bw9y3Qsk%2FC9Cp56dPrHcSEz%2FAr0Zq5el9BEEdpE--23lnRC8fU0%2Fsn13ryM871mf1jmM1dUjkmiSvaLNgJjb67pd3KfdVjuND8nPx720y4ajz9BPqgS8GUW%2FCNLpWF1MTDMkYcIXC7cHLcpOan7woIP1A2k2vjESEOPdlk4W2oy4yUcxyO%2BXWy347GqH%2BHrWnu%2F2Og%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR5bRrIjVZw

Thanks for helping and sorry to hear about the theft/ damage. I had a different bike stolen around the same time period and wasn’t so fortunate with them burning it 2 doors down in a wheel barrow - I can only assume the chain & locks were giving them trouble.

I purchased the unit from the first link as it’s stock and doesn’t look in too bad shape - I’ll hopefully be able to do some sort of refurb with the damaged unit I have right now and keep it as a spare now knowing their scarcity. Thank again! - one step closer to getting her back on the road.
