Instructions:

1) Make sure the bike is on a stand and vertical, and for safety make sure that the engine is cool and is supported from below by blocks.

RIGHT SIDE (In relation to sitting on the bike)

1) Remove the rear side fairing bolt for access to the frame.

2) Remove the 2 factory bolts shown. NOTE: Be careful not to drop the OEM bushings behind the frame.

 

3) Install the brackets marked RIGHT (R) into the frame holes using 2 of the supplied bushings between the bracket and the frame. You will use the (2) 95mm hardened bolts supplied. The shorter end of the bracket should face towards the rear of the bike, allowing the slider puck (when installed) to stick out just beyond the fairing. Note: See the spacer description to determine which size spacers you will use. (Either use both 20mm spacers or (1) 16mm and (1) 20mm spacer. If using the smaller 16mm spacer, that 16mm spacer will go on the lower/front bracket bolt in order to straighten the bracket when running your motor in the adjusted position)

4) Tighten the 2 bolts holding the bracket into the frame using the same factory torque specs recommended in your service manual for the OEM bolts you are replacing.

5) Install the frame slider puck into the bracket using the included bolt, flat washer, and lock washer. 35 ft/lbs of torque is recommended for the bolt that goes into the Motovation bracket.

6) Reinstall fairing bolt.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
