3manfan Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Hello all, new member here. I've just purchased my 1st metric bike (2018 MT-07) after leaving Harley behind. Love the bike but I prefer the headlight set-up of the FZ-09. Any opinions on whether or not the 09's headlight system can be adapted on to my 07? Anyone know of this being done and/or can anyone suggest with whom I can check with about it? Thanks! 3manfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member TylerNT02 Posted December 31, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted December 31, 2018 I agree with you, I prefer the look of the 09 better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I tried the search bar in the top right corner but I didn't see where anyone had tried and accomplished that. I only skimmed the first page, you can look yourself, maybe you'll find something. GL! Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member TylerNT02 Posted December 31, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted December 31, 2018 I need to look at the 09's and see how they are wired together and how they are mounted to see if maybe they are compatible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xCaldazar Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 It is a bit of a pain. They use different connectors. There is a wiring diagram for an old fz09 going to the new mt09 headlight, it is similar. Yamaha uses a 6 pin connector on the new mt09 headlight, where the fz07 uses a 3 pin H4 connector, plus separate wiring for the running lights. Finally got it wired up correctly.

xCaldazar Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Here is a diagram of the wiring. The running lights may not be the best 12v to grab from. Not sure if the fuse can handle the extra load. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coreyman Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 This is great! But where did you find the headlight? I've been looking all over for the headlight and can't find one. Don't really want to spend $500 on it either. I'm looking to adapt the headlight to the 2017 fz-07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Global Moderator mjh937 Posted April 29, 2019 Global Moderator Share Posted April 29, 2019 The 2018 headlight looks a lot like the FZ-09.

Got it, I was thinking of the FZ-09 headlight, not the MT-09 one. I forgot they changed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
