Right
Side (while sitting on bike)
1. Remove the right-side engine mount bolt (forward mount).
2. Install the shorter slider with the M10x 100mm bolt
and supplied washer.
3. Tighten the engine mount bolt to the factory specifications - DO NOT

A bit of Locktite on the bolt threads is recommended.

FAIRING MODIFICATIONS If you have the race kit, 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 38mm in diameter. Edges
can be filed for perfect fit, or inaccuracies in drilling. We have
found that placing masking tape on the area helps protect from scratches,
cracks, etc.
Thank-you
for purchasing Motovation products. Please ride safe and always
wear protective clothing.
