I wondered this too, since I have a 70. It looks to me like it would be pretty easy; I've been pricing wiring harnesses from CT70s. My motor even has the plug coming out of the stator. I think with a harness, some lights and some creative wire placement, it wouldn't be hard. But this is all theory so far.

Much to my suprize The wiring diagram actually shows a headlight. See for yourself.

the first 70's came with headlights so it will not be that hard to wire up or find actual Honda parts for them.

Mounting it will probably be the hardest thing. I was thinking of taking the light on my ATC 90 and putting it on my 70, I have the ATC 70-125 book as well and it does show what Howdy has posted, but it only says up to 1982, so maybe they changed the stator and if this is the case you will eventually burn your stator out, I doubt very seriously that they changed anything, but it may be possible.

I've seen the "factory" installed light, brakets, switch, taillight, wire loom, etc.. and they are for the 70 atc, up to 82. My engine builder says the stators are the same and as long as you use a 15 watt bulb, no worries. Seen lots of folks run after market lights, even a company used to re-do the stators, still a few companies that do. I also heard you could still special order the 83's with a headlight kit on the "Blue" models.
