My Comet's got a 6 1/2" cat's eye headlight, or at least that's what the seller called it. It's a domed glass lens (looks old) and the pattern in it looks like a cat's eye with a pointed elipse in the centre.
a. Is this a Vincent fitting?
b. If it is, how am I supposed to see where I'm going at night???
The light thrown out (ha ha) is a circular pattern with no light in the middle (dip and main). Is this as it should be, or as I suspect, should it have a special bulb - the one I've fitted is a 12 volt 50/40 watt for old car headlamps - I couldn't find a halogen one that would fit.
