200 mm Bosch headlight, brand new.

its a fair price given all circumstances, they have changed hands at £1000 before now, I bought one at Monthlerry in 2000 for £35, it was new and it was loosely fitted to a 750 twin (wrong anyway) to get it I had to buy a Bosch headlight to make the used 750 look OK and part with a bit of cash the light and the cash adding to the £35, and sold it for £35 about a year later,to a friend buiding a drummer triple, the term should not be used for twins, a drummer is a triple.

A drummer is a musician.

ps, name ten drummers better than me

Sixty of those headlights would buy a nice 750 SFC but not even a bare (bent) frame of a green frame.

Just get a cheap GT frame and paint it green. Get the whole bike and sell off the extra parts and paint the frame green.

Then hit the frame with a sledge to bend it and Bob's your uncle. Waaaaaay more fun than buying a 200 mm Bosch headlamp.

Having been married to someone in a band I know what you mean. Do you alternate professions weekly?

That would be the premise of the drummer jokes, Jim - mutual exclusivity? (What do you call someone who hangs around with musicians? .... A drummer.)

There are some hilarious muso jokes - they cover the entire gamut. The funniest ones I ever read were about classical instruments, so the irreverence doesn't stop at drummers or rock musos!

But my faves are the banjo jokes.
 
what if it’s neither, those headlights are almost impossible to find especially new. The market is what it is, not many people are looking for those and almost none are for sale. The most basic laws in economics are the law of supply and the law of demand. Indeed, almost every economic event or phenomenon is the product of the interaction of these two laws.
But if you set the expectation that's a fair price then all those who have one lurking in their collections of bits may decide to sell too and all of a sudden there's more supply than demand and the price collapses - I think I'll go look through my stash before that happens!
 
I reckon I could get a bunch of replica 200mm headlights made in Taiwan…… sell them to you blokes and retire on the winnings.

Then again, those Chinese ships sniffing around Taiwan may put a stop to my plans 🙄

Anyone up for Chinese replica headlights?
