Headlight
« on: August 01, 2005, 07:52:24 PM »
I have a 2000 600 Bandit I am trying to take the fairings off and turn it into the naked model. But I dont know from what bike I can use the wiering from, to go to the the round head light.

I'm not 100% sure there's a 'plug and play' solution.
  Which headlight are you using?
  I think one of the more common, and easiest conversions uses an SV650 headlight.  I think the wiring harness is pretty close....

You don't need to do anything to the wiring but change the connector to match the bulb you're hing to use.

The bigger problem on a 2G B6 (for Americans) is finding a way to mount the instruments... unless you go with an aftermarket instrument setup which is kinda spendy.

I went from a naked to a faired version last year. Paul is right about the headlight wiring(natually). I might still have my guage mounts from my formerly naked B12. I don't know if they would fit a b6 though.

Hit me on my email and I'll see what I have. The hardest part will be remembering what the mounts look like. Maybe we can swap some parts. What are you doing with your fairing panels and stuff? GSPARGER@HOTMAIL.COM
