Who is the maker of that  headlamp?  I just read some info I have, and if you take the headlight apart, there should be a spare bulb behind the reflector, or a least a holder for one.

But I think it's a KD 869 motoscoot light. And your right about the clip to hold a spare bulb,it's in there.

That is not a kd869.  They started using the KD869 around 1943, and it is a much rounder light.
