I was doing a track day this Friday and had a blast. After one session I realized that the plastic right headlight cracked and the lens fell out. The plastic that holds the lens in place was cracked before (only in one small place) but I thought I fixed it with Krazy glue and electrical tape. But this track is fairly bumpy and cracked the plastic more open and the lens is now lost. Does anyone know where I could find a replacement headlight? Does anyone sells this stuff out there, or am I gonna have to wait until somebody has this for sale on e-bay? I attached some pictures.

Buy a brand new one from your dealer, they updated the headlamp assembly, it works much better than your original 03 lamps. |

I think I have an extra set of headlights. PM me if your interested in one and I'll check to see if I still have them. |

I think they're 60 bucks each, that's what they were a while ago. |

Only stuff I have is also all cracked and they are 03 so they are the dimmest things that can be called lights. I suggest a nice set of Hella lights, you'll never know how good it could be until you try them. |

Thanks for the help. I'm always paranoid when something brakes on the Firebolt because these bikes are not made anymore and some parts might be hard to get. I will go to a Harley/Buell dealership here to see if they have this part in stock. I also e-mailed Buellsterparts to see if they ship to Canada, their website says they do not offer international shipping. If I'm unlucky everywhere I will send you a message Damnut. Thanks again for the quick help. |

Actually, it's worse than you thought. The right hand one is special to Canada and runs about $US167 according to chicagoharley. |

I found a used headlight assembly on e-bay. Will a 2007 XB12R headlight work with my 2003 XB9R? I don't think there should be a difference, the unit is identical but I'm not sure about the electrical sides of things. I also asked the dealer here and it will be $150 with tax if I buy a new one part# Y04355AA, it's kind of nice that they can still order parts for Buells. |

Thanks for the offer, but I bought one from e-bay for $120 for the whole headlight assembly. |

I hope that $120 came with mounting bracket and both lights. |

Greg I think everyone but you understood that "whole headlight assembly" means bracket and both lights. |

Take a look on ebay, often I see people asking more than $100 each for used 03 R lights (no mount, no lamp). But then again I must just be stupid so maybe I'll just stop posting. |

I originally wanted to buy just the right headlight from Buellsterparts.com for about $60, but they only ship in the US. That's why I had to buy the whole headlight assembly for more from e-bay. |
