in the order presented.
6.1 INSTALLING ADAPTER BRACKET
Install the Adapter Bracket by attaching it to the motorcycle’s radio bracket as follows:
1.
Obtain Adapter Bracket 188D6438P1 (Item 3 in Table 4-1) included in Motorcycle Installation Kit
MAMW-NZN7X.
2.
Obtain the four (4) resilient mounts in Motorcycle Adapter Bracket Mounting Kit 350A1396G4 (Item
7 in Table 4-1).
3.
Attach a resilient mount to each corner of the bracket using four of the eight

-inch serrated nuts
included in Hardware Kit 350A1396G2 (Item 6 in Table 4-1). See Figure 6-1. Use each mount’s
shortest stub. Tighten these four (4) nuts securely. A torque of approximately 100 in.-lbs. (11.3 N.m.)
is recommended.

Using Figure 6-1 and/or as a guide, securely attach the Adapter Bracket to the motorcycle’s radio
bracket. Use the ¼-20 x

-inch-long bolts (“hex cap screws”) and ¼-inch flatwashers included in
Hardware Kit 350A1396G2. The Adapter Bracket’s four (4) large PEM nuts must be facing up and
the smaller PEM nut must be facing down. Also, the small PEM nut must be to the left-rear of the
motorcycle.
Some motorcycle radio brackets have pre-drilled holes that will match the four (4) PEM nuts in the
Adapter Bracket. If so, as illustrated in Figure 6-1, use a ¼-inch flatwasher with each ¼-20 bolt and
first pass each bolt through the bracket hole, then into the respective PEM nut in the Adapter Bracket.
Other motorcycle radio brackets have pre-installed PEM nuts that match holes in the Adapter Bracket.
If so, as illustrated in , use ¼-inch washers with each ¼-20 bolt and first pass each bolt through the
respective hole in the Adapter Bracket, then into the respective PEM nut in the motorcycle’s radio
bracket.
5.
Tighten all four ¼-inch bolts securely. A torque of between 55 and 60 in.-lbs. (6.2 to 6.8 N.m.) is
recommended.
