How to read a fitment listing
What direct fit, requires modification, and the confidence levels actually mean — and what a fitment listing can never tell you.
Every part on this site carries a fitment label for each motorcycle it is listed against. Those labels mean specific things, and reading them correctly is the difference between a part that bolts on and a weekend you did not plan for.
Direct fit means the part is sold for your exact model and year, and is intended to install with no modification. It is the strongest claim we make.
Requires modification means it can be made to work, but something has to change. That might be drilling, cutting, a bracket, a spacer, extra hardware, or splicing into wiring. Treat this as a project rather than a purchase, and price the extra parts and the time before you commit.
Not compatible is recorded deliberately rather than left blank. It is frequently more useful to know that a popular part does not fit your bike than to find nothing at all and be left wondering whether anyone checked.
Alongside the fit type, each listing carries a confidence level. Verified means a person confirmed it. Likely means it came from a manufacturer or retailer catalogue and looks correct, but nobody here has confirmed it independently. Unconfirmed means the source named a model without naming the years, so we matched what we could and are telling you that plainly. No automated process ever writes "verified" — that word only appears when a human put it there.
Now the important part: what a fitment listing cannot tell you.
It cannot see your specific machine. Fitment often turns on details that catalogues do not capture — which market your bike was built for, a mid-year revision, whether you have ABS or a quickshifter, or a modification a previous owner made and did not mention. A part that fits ninety-nine bikes of your model and year can still fail to fit yours.
It also cannot tell you whether a modification is a good idea. Brakes, suspension, steering, wheels, tyres, lighting, and exhaust all affect how a motorcycle behaves, and some changes affect road legality, emissions compliance, insurance, or your warranty depending on where you live. Those are judgements for you and, where it matters, for a qualified mechanic.
So use this site the way it is built to be used: to narrow the field quickly, see what riders with your exact bike actually chose, and understand what a part will cost before you commit. Then confirm the final fitment with the manufacturer before you buy.
If you find fitment here that is wrong, tell us. A fitment error that reaches a rider is the worst thing this site can do, and corrections are treated as urgent.
