Sure, you unplug old bulb and plug in new harness. Just have to figure out which adapter ring to use for the light to install the new light. Instructions were useless.

Useless is an understatement. It's easy enough to figure out though, take the bulb you remove from the headlight, match the adapter ring to it, orient said adapter ring so the concave side matches that same bulb you took out, install adapter ring by lining up a small peg hole on the ring with a little alignment peg on the bulb, push it past that, and twist to lock the ring in place. Just make sure you orient the bulb correctly with the alignment tabs on the adapter ring for the housing so the 3 low beams that fire face up and you are good.

As far as not seeing the plug and play part... You don't see the 3 prong connector on the right side of the picture? That's a classic H4 plug.

[/QUOTE] your existing bulb should be similar to this one.

I'm fighting this light issue right now myself. I feel like an idiot. I can't figure out for the life of me how to get the damn bulb back in. I found the black ring that matches the shape of the old bulb. I can snap it on and twist it and lock it on the new bulb. Am I supposed to have the spring and white plastic piece on too? I've tried it every way I can think of. Help me before I burn the whole SOB to the ground lol!

Now that it's dark outside I went out and did a test run with the new headlight, very impressive. Huge difference compared to the stock bulb which is an absolute joke. Thanks for the link pcspecialist

LOL, we all have those moments. Never, ever try working on something after a long days work. I'll get brain lock up and give up then get up the next morning and have the "you dumb ass, why I didn't see that yesterday" moments.

I thought I had posted about the 2009 R1 MOSFET R/R swap in this thread but apparently, I posted about it elsewhere.

I got it installed and it holds the voltage between 14.1v and 14.3v, much better than the OEM's under 13v to a little over 15v.

From the OEM R/R. the black wire is a sensing wire, it isn't used with the MOSFET R/R. Red is +, Green is - and the other two are the stator. I plugged the middle gray connector and hooked up the two stator wires to the remaining gray connector terminals but you can do it in any order you like.

I do this mod to all the bikes I have if they don't come with a mosfet rectifier. I use the FH012AA or FH020.
