My bike is a 1978 CB550p exMOT bike.

I'm looking for the ticket box that sits behind the rider, where the pillion normally would.
And the red light stalk.

I will concider pretty much any ticket box or light regardless of condition, price, or age.

Hey there,

There are two x MOT bikes on TradeMe one is dirt cheap and still has the ticket box. Perhaps you could ask them to sell just that???

...ticket box, And the red light stalk...206922

I have asked a friend, and he may have them (both), he (ex MOT officer) will confirm with me if he still has them.
He suggests to be road legal you can mount the light stalk as long as it is decommissioned or set up as rear stoplight...

That's awesome, I appreciate it.

Also I like the idea of the light stalk being used as a stoplight. Cool.

Hey dude, sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
My friend has located items you are after; they are in pretty rough condition, but none the less will get images to send through.
If you want to flick me a private message with some contact details we can go from there.
Most exMOT would appreciate a rebuild of one of their steeds, most keep track of their old bikes and maybe able to provide a full history of it.
