Rack Installation (continued)
8.
Start an 8mm x 20mm allen bolt through each
of the two holes in the lower mounting plate,
through a 2mm spacer/washer and loosely
thread into the passenger footpeg holes.
We strongly recommend using fresh
thread locker every time these bolts are
installed.
Leave loose until all bolts are installed. (Fig. 5)
*If the 2mm spacers/washers are not
installed, the bolt may contact the swing
arm during vehicle operation and cause
damage or injury.*
9.
Repeat steps 5 – 7 on the left side of the bike
10.
Position the rear brace behind the pannier
racks, aligned with the rear mounting plates,
TUSK sticker on the right side of the bike.
(Fig. 6)
11.
Start four 6mm x 20mm bolts through each of
the holes in the rear brace mounting plates,
through the pannier hoop rear mounting plates,
through a 6mm washer, and thread into a 6mm
nylock nut.
Leave loose until all other bolts on the rack are
tightened. (Fig. 6)
12.
Tighten all bolts on the side panniers starting in
the front and moving towards the rear of the
bike. After the side racks are secured, tighten
the bolts on the rear brace.
(Optional) Passenger Foot Pegs
13.
If you wish to add passenger foot pegs to
replace the OEM ones removed for installation,
the racks are designed to accept 12mm foot
pegs such as the Bike Master Buddy Motorcycle
Foot Pegs available from Rocky Mountain
ATV/MC (Item# 1228280002).
14.
Orient the foot peg along the pannier rack
support bar as shown in Figure 8, and insert
the stud through the gusset mount hole
indicated in Figure 7. Follow the foot peg
manufacturer’s instructions for installation.
15.
Repeat step 14 on the other side of the bike.
