Handlebar Assembly

Mounting the Handlebars

NOTE:   The left and right handlebars are different. Each has two holes 

drilled in the bottom of the handlebar tube and two more drilled in the 

middle.
1.  Install the upper handlebar bracket to the square tubing of the frame 

     using two M8x40mm bolts and nyloc nuts and two 13mm wrenches 

     in the configuration shown in

 Figure 2.

2.  Position the right and left handlebars with the grips facing outwards. 

     Align the two lower holes in the frame and upper handlebar bracket. 

     Install the M10x25mm and M10x50mm bolts as shown in Figure 2

 

     and hand tighten.

3.  Mount the handlebar bridge using four M8x40mm bolts and nyloc 

     nuts to the middle holes in the handlebars using two 13mm wrenches.

4.  Finish tightening the lower M10 bolts and nyloc nuts using two 

     17mm wrenches.

5.  Use the supplied zip ties to secure the cable from the clutch handle to 

     the handlebars and tiller frame.
