CONTROL UNIT MOUNTING
Mount the control unit within convenient reach of the operator, and where
it will not interfere with the safe operation of the motorcycle. A typical
control unit, microphone, and speaker mounting is shown in Figure 2.
Due to the large number of different motorcycle makes and models, it is up
to the installer to decide how to mount the control unit, radio, and optional
equipment. Guidelines are provided for planning the installation.
The use of customer-designed "U" brackets, "L" brackets, mounting plates,
backing plates, or optional mounting kits from the motorcycle
manufacturer, if available, are suggested for mounting the control unit,
microphone, adaptor plate, weatherproof case, and radio. Existing bolts in
the frame and handlebar assembly may be utilized to mount the brackets
and mounting plates to the motorcycle.
Bracket material should be 1/8-inch steel minimum. When designing and
mounting the brackets, the following guidelines should be considered:
•
The installation must NOT interfere with steering or operation of
the motorcycle.
•
Mounting locations must NOT interfere with the driver or with
Instrument visibility.
•
The installation should provide easy access to the radio operating
controls.
Be careful to avoid damaging some vital part of the
motorcycle if it becomes nessary to drill mounting holes.
Also, always check to see how far the mounting screws
will extend below the mounting surface before installing
CAUTION
After installing the control unit, do not make any cable connections until
all cables have been run and secured, and the speaker and any option
connections have been made to the vehicle system plug. Speaker and
option connections are shown on the Interconnection Diagrams listed in
the Table of Contents. A typical control unit installation is shown in Figure
