Well guys....i have a new problem with my rebuild...i need to change the headlight bulb and cant figure out how to get it out. I had to take the glass lens out to get to the bulb and when I tried to pull it out...just the glass came out....the bulb body stayed in there. I doesnt seem to unscrew or anything. I mangled the bulb body trying to get it out and it wont come out. Do I have to replace the whole assembly where the bulb goes in or is it just the bulb that I can replace. If anyone has had to replace the bulb on their rt1 please let me know how to do it....Thanks!!!!!

Just had a look on the Yamaha usa site at the parts list and it does look like the headlight is a sealed unit unless someone know otherwise.
