Smoke Lens Tail Light for FZ1 FZ8 - Integrated LED Turn Signals

In this review of the MZS Motorcycle Tail Light with a smoke lens, the bottom line is simple: riders who own a Yamaha FZ1 Fazer 2006-2015 or FZ8 2011-2013 and want a clean, integrated rear lamp that combines running, brake and turn signal functions will appreciate the improved styling and visibility this unit provides. The reviewer found it to be a straightforward direct-replacement that noticeably upgrades the rear appearance while offering bright brake and amber turn signals, though a few riders reported running light or wiring quirks that deserve a careful check before final installation.

Key Features

• Perfect fit: Designed specifically for FZ1 Fazer 2006-2015 and FZ8 2011-2013 models for a direct replacement without body modifications.
• Integrated functionality: Combines running light, brake light and left/right turn signals into one compact assembly to simplify wiring and tidy the rear end.
• High quality components: Machined ABS housing and a UV protected smoke lens improve durability and resist yellowing from sunlight.
• Dual color LEDs: Uses red LEDs for brake and amber LEDs for turn signals so the signals are distinct and visible to following traffic.
• Weather resistant: The assembly is described as waterproof and dustproof to withstand typical road conditions.
• License plate illumination: Built-in lighting for the plate keeps the rear legal and visible at night.

Who It's For

This tail light is best for FZ1 and FZ8 owners who want a factory-fit upgrade that modernizes the bike's rear styling while keeping all essential light functions in one unit. It's especially appropriate for riders who prefer a smoke lens aesthetic and value bright brake and amber turn signals for improved visibility.

Riders who are inexperienced with motorcycle wiring, or those who require a plug-and-play harness identical to the original, should be cautious: the LED unit has fewer wires than the stock lamp and some buyers reported needing to add a resistor or confirm wire mapping for correct operation of the running light. If a warranty-backed OEM replacement is required, look elsewhere.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Looks good on the bike and delivers a clean, integrated rear appearance that many owners prefer.
• Bright brake and amber turn signals improve visibility and communicate intent clearly to following traffic.

• Direct replacement fit for the listed FZ1 and FZ8 model years makes installation tidy when wiring is matched correctly.

Cons

• Some users reported the running light not functioning or needing a resistor and careful wiring checks during installation.
• Instructions are not included, so riders should be prepared to verify wire functions before finalizing the install.
