No, but you could replace it with a sealed beam real easy.

Just to clarify, I don't need the bulb, I need the lens cover. Not sure if we are on the same page.

Is there some reason you would want only a lens instead of a better sealed beam?

It,s the old fashioned headlights that used to be in all cars, it replaces the lens and bulb in one shot. and its a direct fit for our bikes. Less than $15 at any auto store

Bulb, reflector, and lens in a solid unit.
The later (after '05?) came with a sealed beam from the factory. Not very bright, low beam next to useless. You can replace it with one from the auto parts as mentioned above. The only difference, besides better lighting, is the loss of the parking light feature (turning the key past off, illuminating the tail light and a feeble light from the headlight).

Well you could try Pinwall on Ebay for used or go with a sealed beam as stated above. Here is a pic of a spotlight sealed beam to give you an idea what we mean.  the headlights are the same except they have the 3 prong plug on the back and the prisims to disperse the light on the front.

Like others, I switched over to the Adjure headlight. Got mine from Fasteddy. It's a piece of functional jewelery for the bike and reportedly brighter.

I bought my Adjure stretched visor light from Ebay new for $99. It is a fine quality piece, chromed billet aluminum and far brighter than stock with better dispersal. Wendy complains it's like having my high beam on when it's dimmed if I am behind her at night.
