I have been searching and reading until my eyes started to burn. I want to know what newer style tail section will fit on a 1996 F3. Something more sleek looking and be about to have two seperate seats like the F4I's have. I love that look and the ability to install and remove the solo seat cowl whenever you want.
Thanks,
Jay

what tail is that on the second bike (the red one)??? That look is amazing. Nice and streamline.

i am doing a 600rr tail swap onto my f1, and i tried to use a 95 f3 fender, but it wont fit with the storage thingy. the frame may be shaped a little different on the f3, so i am not sure. but in my situation the tail of an 04 rr would not fit. as far as those bikes, especially the red one, look at those unsighlty gaps between the front lowers, tail, and tank....that look is absolutely horrid.

what year f4i tail? and i am assuming that you have to drill holes near the tank on the frame for the tail. is this right? also where do you attach the rear section of the tail to the frame. by buddy at work has a F4i and sitting side by side it doesnt look like the tail will fit on my F3. anyone that has done this please help also post some pictures.
Thanks,
Jay

both bikes in the attachment above are using stock F3 sub-frames. so i guess there is no need to swap to a F4i sub-frame. ????

yeah dont cut anything. might have to have some custom stays fabricated. key here is research, look at diagrams from both bikes, of the seats, tail, fenders, that way you know how stuff goes togethor. any online store with OEM parts should have the fiche finder that is complete with diagrams.

if you need to buy any oem parts, get them at service honda, its cheaper.
