Are 2015 FZ07 "aftermarket" parts interchangeable with newer models ?

Posted February 12, 20232 yr

I have aftermarket clip ons (woodcraft) and rear sets and I'm thinking of taking this bike to the track. In case something happens (or in the future I buy a new MT07) are these parts interchangeable with newer MT07s?

I may also upgrade the rear shock and upgrade the forks (cart. kit)...would these transfer over as well ?

Most stuff is interchangeable. If there's a specific part you can go to a parts site like Babbitt's and compare part numbers between model years, if they are the same that's a guaranteed fit. If they aren't the same, it could still fit... For cars I know some manufacturers actually list what models a part fits (Toyota/Lexus for example does this), unfortunately I haven't found this information from Yamaha.

I think everyone is hibernating, has anyone gone from a 2015 FZ gen to a newer model and swapped parts? I'm thinking of investing in rear shock, front fork cartridges, and steel braided brake lines...but I don't want to spend the money if I can't install it on a newer MT model.

Yes I can do the research, but I would think with the passion for the fz/mt here, someone else has already done it.

I also already have woodcraft clip ons and rear sets, power commander, yoshi full system...so before I drop another few thousand, I'm hoping I can transfer it to a newer MT07 when the time comes.

That is the general consensus.

If you have thought of it, someone else did it and someone else resolved it.

Hi. I'm pretty sure that just about everything is compatible, in general. Per your specific requests: yes, Woodcraft clip ons are compatible. As are any shock and fork related things.

The only things that I know for sure are not directly compatible are the dash / gauge, which I think you can make work, but it doesn't bolt right up to the FZ fairing stay. And I guess anything involving ABS braking that isn't on the FZ.
