Is it possible to swap head lights

[Hulka]

I was wondering if it is possible to take a headlight and the plastic from a 1150 rt and put it on a 11oo rt? Anyone tried this at all?

I can't answer your question for sure, but I do have some observations, being the owner of an '02 1150RT.

First, the 1150's have fog lights integrated into the HL assembly, & they would have to be wired & switched.

Second, it would depend on whether or not the fairing mounts & all the various electrical connections are the same.

Sorry I can't be of real help, but I'm sure someone will elaborate further.

im not too sure if you can, i did go down that route for a while and looked atthe possibilty of doing this. im still working on it. i will let you know if i find anything out.i did looked at the possibilty of cutting out the sides of the headlight panel in the fairing as well to fit the headlight off a 1150rt. havnt done so yet.

Anything is do'able, but some of what you'd be up against - Different wiring harness, different sub-frame, different upper and lower dash, different windscreen trim ass'y. Different front tupperware of course.

some feller in germany did this.

according to the text he used a r1150rt upper with the headlight, not just the headlight. see here:
