Step 1 

 
Loosen all eight bolts holding the fork brace together. 
Fully remove the four bolts labeled 1 and 2 in Fig 1. 
This will release the forward sections of the clamp for 
installation purposes.  
 

Apply a small drop of blue thread locking com-
pound on each bolt.

 Lightly tighten the four center 

bolts but allow room for movement until installation is 
complete. 

Step 2 

 
Place the forward clamp (small, rounded piece) and 
gently slide it between the fork tube and front fender 
as shown in Fig 2. Check to ensure the forward clamp 
is seated securely on the top of the fork tube. Repeat 
this process with both fork tubes and forward clamps. 
 
 
 
 

Step 3  

 
Slide the rear attached cross section and rear clamps 
behind the forks. It can be difficult to slide the clamp 
behind the brake line on the right (brake) side of the 
motorcycle. Slide the rear clamps onto the fork tube 
and ensure they are seated firmly against the top of 
the tube as in step 2.
