The problem is, you have a lot of electrical stuff up there that is going to need a home. Normally, people put firebolt tails on lightnings, not lightning front ends on a firebolt. You may have to get a lightning wireing harness.

I wouldnt, your talking 30+ wires.

Used wiring harness's on ebay for less than $100.

Thats what i did. Then the swap isn't so bad.

If you need any help BryanXB12R just ask, i did the swap in October on my XB12R

Is there a difference between the 9 and 12 harness?
