Episode 2: Inazuma 1200 – Lightweight plastic headlight case * Honda OEM multi-reflector edition

Boom?
The back of the headlight case being black and plastic looks cool theory… pretty convincing.
Multi-reflector headlights with a plastic case are the standard setup.
* By the way, this is leftover from the Z…

I think it was from something like a CB1300SF or thereabouts. CB1100 SC65 and similar would work too.
The beam axis adjustment method is proper, so let’s do something about it…

I wonder what actually happens with customized bikes that don’t have vertical beam axis adjustment…

For those who love understated details, these tiny Stanley letters are irresistible. Lovely.

What’s good about a plastic case is…
it’s light, and even if a wire gets pinched, you’re safe. Maybe this is how electrical components, including switches, gradually became plastic.

Slot holes are surprisingly tedious, so I used the dream spot cutter to remove the spot welds and pull it out.
Since it’s my own bike, I’ll try combining it with a Megamix merge.

I’ll fix the beam axis bracket and perform beam axis adjustment.
While I’m at it, I’ll swap in the NOVSIGHT H4 hi/lo   that everyone loves.

Back in the day, this would have been pretty impressive brightness… but lately, I feel like this level is normal? Or maybe even on the low side? 33,000 CD
Inspection pass guaranteed (ΦωΦ) No need for a direct battery relay anymore.

Looks sharp now (*’▽’)
Light, bright, and all good things.
I can’t recommend a plastic case to people who are sloppy with wiring inside the headlight.
