Rizoma FE Kit

Anyone tried one of these? Rizoma makes very nice products and I really like the quality feel of their FE kit.

Thanks!

Re: Rizoma FE Kit

Rizoma makes high quality (and pricey) products. I love my Rizoma mirrors. The Rizoma FE kit seems like it was designed for the much larger European plates. I personally like the smaller, tucked in version of the FE kit.

I was looking on PJs Parts and they metion a larger Euro version and a smaller US version, however there isn't a photo of the US one.

Can the stock turn signal be used, or would I need aftermarket ones? I actually like the stock ones because they are more easily seen by cagers than the tiny ones.

Re: Rizoma FE Kit

I would love to see the US version of the Rizoma FE kit. I bought the Rizoma rear signals but have not installed them yet. Still using the stock blimps on the FZ6 FE kit. Ask solomoto parts to take a photo. It only makes sense for customers to see a product first before buying it. Cheers.

Re: Rizoma FE Kit

Most FE kits fail to replace the red rear reflector. An easy fail at MOT time here in the UK. This one has it, that is good.

I agree, I would like a smaller fender but not a the elimination of safety. I like a larger turn signal and I like the rear reflector.

Re: Rizoma FE Kit

I downloaded the Rizoma catalogue, and the FE kit comes with three different supports, EU, US, and a tiny one. The turnsignal mounts can adjust outward and you can adjust the angle of the plate. Very cool.

They also make some very cool turnsignals and spacers to keep them wide if you wish. Very, very cool.

Oh you are right my friend Grommit, I do what the kit, and four turn signals, some adapter brackets and four spacers. I'm afraid to add up the cost!

I really like their rearsets too. Maybe if DI isn't looking I'll swip his!

Re: Rizoma FE Kit

is the reflector required my law in the US? The reflectors are on the sides of stock. I like the FE kit I got.. uses stock signals and the stock lamp. Just had to cut the tab off back of light. no reflectors though. actually made by a guy that rides a fz6.. you can buy it @ sportsbikes.net store.. Sometimes find it on ebay too.

"FAZR6's For 2004-2008 Yamaha FZ6 Fender Eliminator Kit"
its $60


also there is another spot in fourms that has more pics of it. http://www.fz6-forum.com/forum/fz6-m...liminator.html (Looking for Fender Eliminator)
