I did a search and gathered that I would need the fairings, the front stay and the headlight. My question is, will I be able to use the f4 gauges? I mean without zip tying them. Other threads I have found have conflicting information with the majority saying that the stock gauges will not work

 

The f4 gauges will not mount on the f4i stay right out. There are several threads on how to convert the f4i guages to the f4 if thats something you want to do.
