have looked at gutsibits and valpolini and the usual ebay
stores but i thought i had seen then somewhere once before
while searching for parts .

Hi Ric, MgCycle (MgCycle.com

)had a replacement unit, but they're out of
stock.

sorry, not much use, is it?
Try searching for V7 Sport or 750S - they use the same rear
light unit (as the Militare anyway) - I checked on mine.

You could get some red opaque spray paint and spray the inside
of the lens.I have done this in the past on other bikes,and if
you get the right paint the results are not bad.

Hmmm. I composed a reply to this, but seem to have forgotten to
send it...
There are two different types of tail lamp on the NF. The
original and stock one should be round, but a lot of bikes have
the same support bracket, with a later and more rectangular CEV
lamp.
The CEV one is being reproduced in Taiwan, and you see them for
sale on eBay.com:

Nik's Euro bits claims to have genuine CEV:

He also does the complete round lamp:

The lens for the round lamp comes up every few weeks on eBay,
but I can't remember the supplier, although IIRC it's one of the
German ones.
Renzo's 2 rad shop maybe?

Thanks for your efforts to track one down .
My bike has what i thought to be the original round lens
which is flat rather than deep and fits on the housing like
a cap It is CEV 8191 like this

/>
But at $95 bucks i might try the spray paint first
cheers

This is the same lamp housing as mine , where the number
plate lens is in the housing rather than all in one like the
larger round or later square lens

The lens does come up on ebay on its own, and it wasn't too
dear.
I'll find out where George got his from.
