Default She's all done...01 F4i

Just finished re-doing my F4i that I recently bought in July. The previous owner turned into a 'street fighter' and did a pretty crappy job of it so I put the fairings back on and got it back to running correctly. Here are some quick photos until I take some decent pictures later on in the day.


And this is how crappy the wiring was; I had to redo the entire front harness.

good work! Much improved! How is the quality of that headlight? Ive been thinking of picking one of those ones up because mines cracked and mounting tabs are gone.

The fitment of the actual headlight is spot on, but the reflectors are pretty awful at directing the light. There's no beam adjustment on the unit, and the clips holding the lights in are GARBAGE! I had to make my own otherwise the bulbs wouldn't stay in one place.

Still cheaper than OEM though. That being said, it was the most expensive part of me putting the bike back to where it is right now.

Fairing kit is OEM. Picked it up from Craigslist. The rear tail came with the bike when I bought it.
