Not a Cibie, I suspect it's the original headlight from a bike which had a Cibie conversion, the shop then dropped the old headlight into the Cibie box and relabelled it so they knew what was in there. You can clearly see the Stanley logo on the front of the glass.
Still a good find though.

They had put a label showing it as a Stanley on the box and that's what I was referring to as original. I didn't even notice it was a Cibie box ::)

It will go the same way as the crash bars ;D ;
kent400:
The speedo isn't the original, looks like a CB350 Four one. The original would have been marked to 120 mph but one marked to 130 mph was often fitted on those supplied to the USA market. Gauges with crazed faces are often found on bikes imported from the USA, they have sat in the sun too long.
