Hi Bob,
Nope, I just carry the little H4 headlight bulb. The reflector assembly
is a separate piece. Cheers,
Charlie

I've never used any of it but one plug and a coil in the last 22k miles. I carry a coil because one (a two month old American made Echlin) failed while out on a ride with several Goldwing riders. I'm using a Bosch "Blue Coil" now so will probably never use the spare, but better safe than sorry. The only other spares I normally carry are headlight and taillight bulbs (both Halogen), throttle and clutch cables. May carry a few more items for longer voyages this summer.
