Unfortunately, you're looking at £160 for a new OEM one. But console yourself in the fact that it's not the plastic tabs that hold the headlight to the front subframe, the OEM cost of that is £240!!
Feck! I thought it was expensive after I bent my curvy 'S' front subframe and broke the headlight in 2000, no one seemed to have broken an intact bike back then so I had to buy new.

110quid for the subframe and 120 for the headlight!

I've now got about 3 slightly bent curvy front subframes...
