captainkool4 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Does anyone know where I can find a mechanics manual or something like it to aid in putting my yoshi fender kit on a new 2018 mt07? The kit I got has instructions for an fz and the bikes are different enough that I can't figure it out with the older instructions. I'm a nooby but I can't figure out how to install this kit without instructions or a video, but everything is for the fZ07 which has different fasteners and body work. Please help!

Cruizin Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Hopefully someone who has done this install on an 18 MT-07 will chime in, but until then just start measuring bolt holes and see if they line up.

Cruizin Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 DO you have these instructions? https://imgur.com/a/R3khLRh Yamaha MT-10 ForumYamaha Tracer 900 Forum Yamaha Ténéré 700 Forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I run into problems removing the rear side panels on the mt. It's not obvious to me which portions to remove, or how to actually remove them. The owners manual doesn't go into that level of detail unfortunately. All the videos of people doing it are from fz models and it's different on the mt. Maybe I'll just have to mess around carefully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator mjh937 Posted June 12, 2018 Global Moderator Share Posted June 12, 2018 I am not sure if the 2018 still uses these fasteners, but they confused me for a while when I did my fender eliminator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I installed the Yoshi on my 2018 using those instructions. There some minor differences in the panels, but they are obvious and all the wiring instructions and mounting instructions are correct. I'm really slow but still took under 90 minutes, and I'd never installed a tail tidy on any bike before. Just jump in and do it. No worries.

JRFlurry Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Did the same as Alan. Just followed the instructions. Make sure you find screws under the little rubber “flaps” on the rear side panels under the seat! It’s a pretty straightforward process for the 18 MT. Just take your time!

captainkool4 Posted July 6, 2018 Author Share Posted July 6, 2018 Yeah I just took the side plastics off, wasn't too bad a little trial and error. From there the new kit fit in perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had three of these laying around after doing the Yoshi kit because they popped into a piece of plastic on the old fender and now there's no point for them to connect to, just an empty hole. Hopefully that's normal.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRFlurry Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I’ll have to take a look to see but I think I recall having a few leftover myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayMT07 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Just installed the Yoshi kit on my 2018. I took my time and it was very easy to do. I have three unused push pins under the tail. I could install the two outer ones but they would be loose. The center one has essentially nothing to push into. See pic of missing pins. Edit - The center one pops back in fine and is snug. The outer ones do not. Instagram: @jayparrington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have three push-pins leftover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayMT07 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 @captainkool4 Mine is firmly in place. I have no idea what it's holding onto, though. Rode over 200km with it and it's still there. I really don't think it's needed though. I put some black vinyl over the two side holes to keep water/dirt out, just in case.
