Help! I need a headlight!

[steadyeddie]

Hi Guys,
Has anyone got a UK/Irish spec headlamp for an 1100GS? My 'new' GS is for MOT on Monday and I have just twigged that the headlight is Continental spec - on the dip the light kicks up to the right, so that when you are riding on the right, it illuminates the road verge. So when you are riding on the left, it will dazzle oncoming motorists. The NI Bike MOT includes a headlight alignment check and I'm pretty sure their machine will show that the kick up is to the 'wrong' side. So I'm fecked if I don't get a UK spec headlight before Monday morning. I will have a go at taping off a section of the lens, but at best that would be a temporary fix.
So has anyone within 100 miles of Enniskillen got an 1100 GS oblong headlight, UK/Irish spec for riding on the left side of the road? If you have one, could you post here or phone/text 0044 7901670029.
Thanks,
Eddie.

Quick fix done

Thanks guys, I have taped off a sort of triangle on bottom left if the lens, so now the top of the beam is straight. It will do until I get a permanent headlight. So if anyone has one for sale, let me know!
So now you know. There is such a thing as a 'left hand drive motorbike'......
