I wanted to change the headlight on my CB100N, I bought a chrome CB900 complete unit from Feked Classic Bike Parts, although the headlight is physically bigger being 7" diameter the mounting points are recessed so it fitted between the bikes mounting brackets. Just had to change the bulb for a 6v one. Don't know what the bracket distances are on a CB175K6 but might be worth a look?

If the parts fly out how easy is it to get them back in? If you can't see how they were fitted in the first place is it obvious how it all goes back together?

Has anyone tried to clean or repair a handlebar switch? I traced the cause of my headlight not working to a faulty OFF<-->ON switch at the handlebar. I was thinking of removing the small metal plate above the sliding switch to maybe try to check / clean the contacts but am worried that if removing it springs / ball bearings might fly out, probably never to be found again, (as happened to me many years ago with a Fizzy Yamaha). I have been looking for a while for a second hand replacement but there haven't been any up for sale, any for sale are all left hand switches not right hand switches, (1981 CB100N). Thanks.
