Apex brake light on RX-1

[YammyRX1]

Has anyone put the Apex seat and brake light on an RX-1 without replacing the RX-1 exhaust covers? Can the Apex plastic be trimmed to fit?

I think Cubby made the swap but you have to use all apex parts. They bolt right up.

Yeah, I figured that but I really don't want to go looking for more parts and the Apex black probably won't match the 03 RX-1 metallic black. I thought they looked pretty close in shape and I could either trim the exhaust cover or the plastic trim but just wondered if anyone had done the same. If not I'll just use the RX-1 light and sell the Apex parts.

taillight

I've done it before and it fits perfectly. If you choose to run rx-1 taillight on apex you will have to change plug of splice wires as the seat harnesses are different.

I know that either light will fit the seat but the Apex plastic trim doesn't mate with the RX-1 exhaust covers and it looks like a small trim job might make it work. If someone has done it that would boost my confidnece, otherwise I might scrap a good piece of Apex trim by cutting it and have to go back to the RX-1 light anyway.

Do a search on mbarclay. He customized a Warrior with Apex seat and tail light. He ha slots of pictures of everything.
