Question Do the 2007 panels fit 04/05/06 models?

Not that I want to change my panels again just yet (I prefer the original style anyway). But does anyone know if the new 2007 panels fit the old 04/05/06 style bikes.???

Ideally they should fit because all the panels are bolted onto the tank which is exactly the same on both models.

My only concern is that the old panels are also fixed to the radiator's grille and on the 07 models they have a new redesigned (smaller) radiator. Perhaps the 07 panels might not fit on 04-06 bikes around the new rad's.

What about the passenger grab rails ?

Will the '07 grabrails fit ? My missus reckons they look nicer to hold

Not sure if they fit, they're squared off so can't imagine they're that cumfy either especially on a long ride, best pop down to Yammy and have a butchers.. ;0)

The new grabrails and pillion pegs will fit without problems.

Will the '07 model XTX rear panels (inc. tail light etc.) fit the '05 model or is it easier just to fit a tail end tidy? I ask as some of the tail end tidies don't seem to have a reflector which I understand is a legal requirement - or has someone been telling me fibs?

Pingu.

That's a good point.... but if the rear tail piece fits then one could do a bit of a hybrid jobby... could be interesting....
