    If you mean headlight/windscreen fairing, i reckon they should fit
    Probably need the top cowling mounting frame to match the headlight too, and the 3LN3 windscreen

    I'll PM you.

    Try also to look for 2KR stuff, the 3LN1 and the 2KR seem very similar in design. Not sure if @my67xr has looked at that perhaps? Could be an alternative for you.

    Are you sure you put all the plugs together... none left over?

    Have you checked your fuse box?
