I like the skinz and looked at the sight... but except for the really really really awesome bellypan; why wouldn't you get the tail section from shark or cobra skinz for 100 bucks and some taillights from targa for around $20? I don't speak french very well but didn't the sight say it was using an 04 R1 tail section for the FZ6 anyways? I want to do the same thing but is there something I'm missing as to why you guys want to spend the extra cash (for the guys getting the tail section)?

what's a "shark or cobra skinz"? and "sight"?

I is confuzed

nvm, I just googled it and found the shark skinz But none of these are for the FZ6... the one we are buying is supposed to be plug and play (kind of), so worth the extra few bucks to some ppl that don`t want to adapt an original R1 seat.

I did buy a set of CobraSkinz (03-05 R6/06-08 R6S Upper and Lower, 03-04 R6/06-08 R6S Front Fender, 04-06 R1 Tail) but cutting up that tail and then refinishing it is a problem. I did a test fitting here and it wasn't pretty. These tails should fit a bit more naturally against the FZ6 subframe. And I can always sell that tail for $100 on craigslist or ebay.

No! Don't wire directly. I'll wire it and we'll split the cost of the wire. Just send me a PayPal payment for the amount in your PM.
