Anyone know what these are?

First, a bike I saw in the newspaper today.


Second, this headlamp bucket.


Thanks,
Bryan

After doing a bit of searching, I'm pretty sure the bike is a Royal Enfield.

Now, the headlight, I still have no idea.

Headlamp is European. The speedo is German (VDO) and it's obviously a tiddler, so it's possibly from a moped; perhaps an NSU or Puch.

You're right about the the bike being an Enfield; they're in production again in India.

A littl'un; small-engined machine; moped..... (Sorry, British English!)
