You can, but you have to either weld or bolt the attachment points on to the frame

yup. not a huge deal. since the frames are for all intensive purposes identical, cept for the mounting tabs.

Mounting tabs screw into the frame.
Steering stem has a welded bracket for the main part. You can hold it there with some u-bolts the way they do the "E" fairing.
