    My Hi/Lo switch is stuffed and I am having trouble finding a replacement. I have found a few listed on fleabay for VF700F but they are slightly different than mine. They have the Hi/Low on the left side but the Lights on/off must be on the right control. Where as my on/off and hi/low is all on the same button. Can somebody have a look at the image here and let me know if my switch is standard or not. Better still if somebody has one they can sell me that would be even better!

    Our US versions had no on/off switch. Our headlights come on with the ignition and can't be turned off so you might be finding those on fleabay. I had switches from a NightHawk S on my R for years, I preferred the S's start button. Seems you should be able to find other NZ/AUS switches from other Honda's from the 80's that work or get some modern ones if you don't care about originality. I switched to CBR ones with the frontend swap. I had to re-wire them but that's simple enough.
