Thank you :) The seat cowl is TCP Aerodynamics, check google or rideaddict. I hear they went up in price recently due to the exchange rate (TCP is in Spain) Good luck! David
I think it would have been better to use heat shrink instead of isolation tape. I used isolation tape on a moped before too, but tape in combination with weather isn't the best match. Over time a lot of electrical things like the blinkers weren't working anymore, short circuited. By the way, didn't you need to order special naked parts for this conversion? Or are all necessary parts already on the normal one?
Hi, I've being considering to do this for a short while now and today fate was decided as local council haven't bothered to grit routes properly and caused me to drop the bike today on icy conditions and now the left side fairings are cracked and bolts areas snapped off for top head light surrounding piece and the side fairing. Which parts do I need to buy and where could I outsource these from to convert the bike from FZ6 faired to naked? Heard you can't find any brackets for the speedo mounting? Want to be able to do a simple way with this as don't want to much of a headache? Any list of parts would be greatly appreciated
im not a fan of cutting the wires and shorting them what if one day you want to put the fairing back on ill stick with tucking them away and keeping things black to hide it idk I like that you made it clean but im in a mixed feeling if I want to keep my fairing or not so I want to keep the option
What about the front brake fluid tank and the mirror mounting point? Can you mount the FZ6N mirror on the brake fluid tank mounting point of the Fazer? It seems there is a rubber plug that should be removed in order to mount the FZ6N mirror.
do you have any problem with the wires along the years? I think that water can easily take into the wires in the welds and spoil the wires. What do you think about this?
Hey i found you in the fz6 forums and you live near me. I just got my fz6 05 and want to make it into a naked version. about how much did it cost for the convertion? i found a few kits but the headlight looks simple and not really my style.
+hektaah Something like that..imgur.com/a/4xT7H still working on the a more secure mount for the headlight and speedometer. I am also waiting on some LED lighbulbs. Still needs work thoe
Nice job man! :) yeah I had improved on the headlight bracket quickly after these videos as the L shaped brackets were not strong enough. I had also moved to a Koso speedo which was a LOT better than the Yamaha... Forums should have lots of info...
The rumor is that he is still converting the bike to this day.
u are the best firing remover ive seen
awsome dude, your pretty smart. way more mod than i`d try. but the outcome was worth it. you have a one of a kind.

Can you tell me if a fz8 headlight would transfer to this fz6 front end? I can't tell if the oem fz8 HL brackets will fit to the fork properly.. TY!
I don't know, but doubt it'll fit without mods.
Great music
Great choice in music, and sick bike. I hope to be getting my first bike this summer. What do you think about this as a first bike?
I'm Brazilian, and watching in 2019
What did you use to mount the speedo. This my issue at the moment

I'm in the same boat.. not sure what to do about brackets for changing the headlight and speedo position.. you had any luck yet?
great video. Did you the naked conversion as a kit? and if so where did you get it from?
Hey thinking buying one of these and doing this. Where is part 2??
im not a fan of cutting the wires and shorting them what if one day you want to put the fairing back on
ill stick with tucking them away and keeping things black to hide it idk I like that you made it clean but im in a mixed feeling if I want to keep my fairing or not so I want to keep the option
he had to extend them
Hey I have a fz6n and had that black little box off of the main wire harness, curious what it does
Post a vid of the new front end please mate.i want to pull my Ferring off.
how much do you think a shop would charge to do this ?
Thanks bro... what's better than working on the bike all day long? :-)
The video looks like it's a lot of work, but I spent a couple hours only!
I am also untested in which parts you used. Would you be able to share with us the parts you purchased?
What about the front brake fluid tank and the mirror mounting point?
Can you mount the FZ6N mirror on the brake fluid tank mounting point of the Fazer?
It seems there is a rubber plug that should be removed in order to mount the FZ6N mirror.
No way.. you have to convert new ones to put it on the handlebars
hey for your r6 fork convert ion what year forks and did you had to getthe front wheel spacers and axel or can u use ur axel and spacers
yeah what fork brackets did you use
hi ! where to buy ur seat cover?
it's looks great!
whats the name and brand of turn signals that you used??
do you have any problem with the wires along the years?
I think that water can easily take into the wires in the welds and spoil the wires. What do you think about this?
Buy insulated wires and use hint shrinking tube around the weld connections...
does it go either way? can you turn the fz6n into a fz6s?
Where can I get that kit that you used in this video?
Show
a front flashlight of fz6, fz8 and fz1 is the same? if I have an affection of turning a fz1s into fz1n I can?
Won't be all the exact same but should be very close indeed. Good luck!!
it's definitely a commitment lol ty
How did you attach the speedometer? Did you buy a special mount?
Had same question 🤔
You need to buy or built a special mount
@Engineer9736 Check fz6-forum in the streetfighter section... I am wavex there...
Wait, where are the headlights O_O

Did you ever do it?
