I have the same everything...FE, signals, yellow bike...Just put it on today...I really like it and apart for some soldering I did it was a piece of cake. Didnt come with the 4 mounting bolts but that dude on ebay was great...Here's what that FE kit will look like:
May need to 'adjust' it a bit so the plate doesn't face the sky...some cops may have issues with that...
Yeah, I e-mailed him to tell him to include the nuts for the bolts because the original ones are welded onto the stock fenderI have the same everything...FE, signals, yellow bike...Just put it on today...I really like it and apart for some soldering I did it was a piece of cake.

I'll keep an eye out for my exact copy of bike next time I'm through mississuga
Yeah 4 nuts would have been nice but I thought at the time that the bolts were too long anyways so now there isnt any threads sticking out of the nylon lock nuts I bought with the 25mm bolts from parts source.Yeah, I e-mailed him to tell him to include the nuts for the bolts because the original ones are welded onto the stock fender
I had to soder the lights too but no biggie...was a project
Does your bike still have the three shooting stars decal on it? I took those off and it looks waaaayyy better
If the numbers on your plate are blue then the white LED's won't light it up and better. I found that with mine, the original LED's were casting a shadow on my plate (and the reflection from the blue numbers were making it look like a blue light) so I went and bought white LED's...didn't make a difference. I ended up taking the stock plate light and adapting it to work with the FE...now the plate is lit up properly.Only problem is that the tag light doesn't really work too well from below. The one he sent me is a blue light (not sure if everyone else got that from him) but it's not extremely bright so from the bottom it doesn't really light up the tag. I'm probably going to pick up some white LED's sometime and mount them on the tail light housing to shine down instead.
Well I took off them little LED tail signals today and put on the stock OEM ones. The LEDs are completely useless in the daytime. I followed my buddy driving my bike and they just aren't near bright enough. And to be honest I didnt really like the look of them. I think its actually better with the bigger ones...at least they now match the OEM fronts that I didnt want to change. My buddy's Ducati has intergrated LED tail and brake lights that are 100% unreadable in the day and about 80% useless at night. He is pretty choked that no one behind him can see him turning or braking. Its not good...I have the same everything...FE, signals, yellow bike...Just put it on today...I really like it and apart for some soldering I did it was a piece of cake.

+1Well I took off them little LED tail signals today and put on the stock OEM ones. The LEDs are completely useless in the daytime.
They're quite visible at night...but during the day, they suck! Plus they came w/ the FE and they're tiny in size which also doesn't help...I think that's one area I never considered when purchasing a yellow bike...the amber colored turn signals just blend right in.
I haven't ridden at night yet, don't really intend to unless its necessary. The ones for my Targa FE are small too...may need to invest in that integrated tail light and find a way to maybe offset the blinkers on the FE and the tail light.They're quite visible at night...but during the day, they suck! Plus they came w/ the FE and they're tiny in size which also doesn't help...
I rode all day behind my FZ6R as my friend wanted to take his GF for a ride and his Ducati 996 is a single seater so I rode that...I loved the look of the OEM signals and the F/E on the FZ. It looks great and is perfect for signalling in the daytime. The 996 on the other hand has absolute useless turns and brake signals...so much so that I was using hand signals most of the day...what a jackpot LEDs are crap.They're quite visible at night...but during the day, they suck! Plus they came w/ the FE and they're tiny in size which also doesn't help...
