Fairing modification instructions:
Install the slider bolts without the slider.  Engage only a few threads and re-install the fairing to mark the inside of the fairing for the pilot hole.  We sometimes coat the head of the socket screw with a non permanent marker or place some putty on the inside of the fairing so the the screw will make a mark or an indentation. Once the center of the bolt location on the fairing is determined, it is suggested that you drill a small pilot hole to locate the engine mount. Once you have found the center, use a hole saw and cut a hole approximately 25mm in diameter. Edges can then be filed larger for perfect fit, or inaccuracies in drilling. We have found that placing masking tape on the area helps protect from scratches, cracks, etc. and a Dremel tool is great for adjust the hole size.

Replace the fairing panels, install the sliders in place and torque to manufacturer's specs.
