The most decorative version of the Search Light lamp will not fit this bracket. There is a version that has a slot to fix the Wishbone bracket.

I also have a copy of this lamp that is NOS, actually a pretty common lamp
but the bracket is extremely RARE!!!

your wood racing handlebars and grips are incredible .... wow, what a find! droollll
your also like to see a close-up of the stem if you don't mind

A "Searchlight" for a racing bike? Where's the bag for the road maps and the knapsack and sleeping bag bracket for overnight camping? Obviously it doesn't belong there.

a bell is also always useful on a pure race bike!

Its a keeper!

please restore this bike to it's original glory .... this is so worth it
the yellow paint has to go IMO
