New Headlight cluster for old shape Forza 300 (2014)
Posted: Sat Oct 26, 2024 5:14 am
Hi,
Years ago, I bought a new headlight cluster for my 2014 Forza 300 at that time. I had just moved to Germany from the UK and rode my Forza to Munich with my son on the back. I was in the process of getting the bike registered in Germany as an import and in order to do so, I had ordered a new headlight cluster directly from Honda.de assuming (as is usually the case) that I needed a headlight cluster that dips to the right, instead of to the left.
It was only after I had placed the order that I realised the part number for the original UK spec headlight cluster and the new one I had ordered from Honda Germany were exactly the same. Subsequent internet research revealed that they are indeed the same part and that the 2014 Forza 300 has headlights that are straight ahead, and not biased either to the right or to the left. I tried to cancel the order, but Honda.de had already shipped it and wouldn't accept a return because they claimed they could no longer guarantee the part for future customers, since it had been out of their hands.
Anyway, I've carried this unused and never fitted part with me around in it's original delivery box and packaging ever since and am looking to clear some space in my garage. I'm back in the UK again now. It cost €500 at the time, but I'll let it go for £60 all in (including the costs of postage and packing within the UK). I sold the Forza 300 before I moved back from Germany. DM me if anyone is interested. I'll accept paypal only, since there is some buyer AND seller protection built in. These are photos of the item taken yesterday: It's all pristine - nary a scratch or blemish anywhere. It's lived all these years in bubble wrap, in the original box.
