This is how it is in my 400.
Hi Multiman
One of the things I just did in this part renovation was change the three headlight bracket mounting rubbers, my existing ones barely existed, I could almost crumble them away in my hand. I even started a thread the other about getting the things into those tight looking holes. You seem to be missing yours altogether, not a good idea. You can get yourself a set from Bertrum's bike bits here:

Well ain't that pretty, still a bit of rust about though. The brass dome nuts under the clocks are a nice but laborious touch. With the 'neglect' under it sorted out now, back on with the bandana, Elen insists on it!   ;D

Thanks for the pointer. Just had a look and I've got the two top ones, albeit pretty cracked and hard but as you say the bottom one is long gone.
I'll replace the lot as suggested.
Cheers
