A few of you have put R6 body work on to your RZ.
Has anyone documented how to wire the R6 (2009 or so) headlight assemblies to the RZ wiring harness?
I would appreciate any help I can get here

Hi Ken
Try get both wiring diagrams (R6 diagram shouldn't be too hard to find), then compare them. The headlight(s) and lighting circuit might need a higher rated fuse. But you should be able to work out what wires are what. Side lights, main beam and high beam.
There could be a different plug shape on the R6 so you might try to find another RD500 headlight wiring loom plug.
Good luck

Thanks for the replies guys.
I have purchased tons of electrical connectors/pins/crimper from Vintage Connections. I can wire it in making a jumper from the R6 lights to the RZ harness.
I have spent a bit of time searching for R6 schematic and have been unsuccessful. I would have thought it would have been easily found on the web.
At this time I was hoping to save time by someone having done the homework already.
As much as I have tried, I am unable to buy time and it seems to be in shorter supply these days.
Happy New Year to all
