mrpeate Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Has anybody even dared to give this bike a facelift? I am looking at the angle of the plastic covers on both bikes and I am almost sure that this would work. If Yamaha parts are refundable, I might give this a shot... FZ-07 connector: FZ-09 connector The two bolt holes on top of each assembly are very similar: FZ-07 FZ-09 Now let me know what you think... Should I try this? Would Yamaha allow me to return the part if it doesn't fit? Please show your support and leave a comment!!!! -MrPeate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gremlin Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Curious as well. Looks pretty close, but I think there needs to be some retrofitting slight modifying to make it fit. Honda Grom CB 350 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrpeate Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 UPDATE This would probably not work unless the entire fork was swapped. Was just at a dealership, the headlight bolts were too far apart to seem close to fitting easily. I would prefer to keep this bike as standard as possible, without any retrofitting or modification... this bike is just too precious to hack up! Dont be an effin hater. -MrPeate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member yamahappy74 Posted October 1, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted October 1, 2015 You may want to swap out your language first. Moderators won't like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpeate Posted October 2, 2015 Author Share Posted October 2, 2015 Must have been a typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member avanti Posted October 14, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted October 14, 2015 If the main problem is simply the spacing of the bolts I see no reason a simple aluminum bracket couldn't be made to "correct" this... and, the possible vertical difference that might also be the case, as suggested in the two parts pix.
