Before u say anything, ive done my research and have come up with some answers but not all.

I recently found a person on these forums who done a F3 Conversion to a F4i front and a 03 600RR tail.. Here is what he done.

Front: He used a F4i conversion for the whole front. (Looks awesome, he really done a good job and inspired me to do the same.) (Has slight Modding, Nothing hard)

Rear: He used a 03 600RR tail. (Looks good except it has some gaps near the gas tank that I honestly dont approve of.) (Has a little more major modding, nothing that bad)

Gauges: He used a set of digital gauges from a F4i. (My bike is an F2, has different wireing than an F3 so im clueless on what to do here.)

Ok my question is.

Am I gonna run into any problems that I need to know about other than what he did? The F2 is almost identical to an F3. If anyone knows anything about the digital gauges and what I would have to do to get them to work, please let me know. Wireing info on the headlight and tailight would be awesome to.

Here is a picture of the bike. (Its so Sexy) I also hope he doesnt mind me posting a pic of his bike."

Here is a picture of the bike.

i think you will have issues with the guages since your bike has a mechanical speedometer, unless you don't need a speedo

there is a guy on cbrworld that used his stock guages and it looked pretty good. im not sure how he mounted it all up since the F3 and F4i stays are different. you might search around there and look for it.

Trim your gauges you know that black plastic shroud so you can have enough room to fit them in the new fairing. Then make your mount tabs and mount it to the stay.

So just use the f4i stay and make some mounts? Thats easy enough. If it doesnt look like its gonna work ill just get some digitals and see if i can get them to work.
