1978 Honda CB550K · Headlamp, Bulbs & Parts Buying guide
Rims, buckets, adjusters and side-reflector hardware serve different parts of the headlamp installation. Compare the retained housing and mounts before treating any one listing as the entire replacement assembly.
Complete stock-type headlampThe assembly lists a 7-inch halogen unit, rim and retainer, plastic bucket and connection hardware. For CB550K 1977–78, side reflectors, reflector rubbers and stay bolts must be reused or purchased separately.View part
Black headlight bucketA separate black headlight case referencing 61301-300-020B. Use its shape and mounting points to compare with the existing housing; this is not a complete lamp assembly.View part

The complete lamp listing includes the light unit, rim and retainer, plastic bucket and connection hardware. Its CB550K 1977–78 note calls for reused or separately purchased headlight-side reflectors, reflector rubbers and stay bolts. Check those retained parts before considering the order complete.
A replacement bucket or rim preserves only the component you select. Custom bracket listings instead specify fork-tube sizes, including 34mm and 35mm choices. Measure the actual tubes and lamp mounts on your motorcycle; a model name does not settle the bracket size after a front-end change.
For the listed CB550K 1977–78 application, the description says to reuse or purchase the headlight-side reflectors, reflector rubbers and stay bolts separately. Account for those pieces when checking the retained headlamp installation.
It is a rim and retainer assembly, rather than the complete lamp, bucket and mounting package. Compare which front housing pieces are damaged so that you can retain suitable parts and order the missing components separately.
Measure the actual fork tubes and lamp mounting holes first. The bracket listings describe different tube sizes; that requirement matters if the motorcycle has changed forks, altered mounts or a different headlight housing.
