Thanks Skoti, that looks the best and easiest option.  Mine must be missing a retaining clip or something for there to be an oil seal used to hold the P45T bulb in.

One last question, did you use a 4300k bulb? 6000k might be a bit blue?

Bryanj:
That is a standard car bulb and there is an H4 equvalent, i will see if i can find a number for you cos im bored

Yes, I used the 6000k bulb and it's a bit blue. Maybe the warm white would look a bit better on an old classic motorcycle but that's your choice.

BTW
there should be a spring below the headlamp bulb retaining cup to hold the bulb in place.

Bryanj:
Are these the bulbs, pic of halogen
