A REAR TAB FENDER PROTECTOR WASHER IS SUPPLIED with seats that mount with a rear tab. Use this washer between the rear seat
tab and your bike's fender to protect the paint. For additional protection, use a Saddlemen Adhesive Fender Washer (PN: 8901) and a
Saddlemen part number Protective Tape Kit (PN: 4320-0807) which further protects paint from abrasion damage from a seat, and is also
useful when mounting other accessories such as tank bags or saddlebags. NOTE: It is not considered abnormal for your new Saddlemen
seat to touch the motorcycle’s chassis in certain places (just like your original seat). Due to the natural variance of your vehicle and your
new Saddlemen seat, you should always check to see if portions of the seat are touching painted or finished surfaces on your motorcycle. If
the test fitting of your seat indicates an area where the seat is touching a sensitive surface, you can protect that area by using the film from
the Saddlemen Protective Tape Kit (PN: 4320-0807). This kit can help protect these areas from abrasion damage from a seat. Some seat
designs vary from the original seat, and may have a Protective Tape kit supplied with these seat models. This will be noted on a decal applied
to the seat’s pan.
It is your responsibility to make sure the seat installation does not create an unsafe or illegal situation. Remember that this seat is a custom
accessory. It is your responsibility to check the installation to determine if it will be safe for you to operate the motorcycle and to properly
and safely carry a passenger (this includes reinstalling the passenger grab strap or installing a suitable replacement). You must also ensure
that the installation does not damage your vehicle in any way.
Failure to install the accessory seat, any seat cover, or passenger grab straps properly may allow portions of the seats or related materials to
slip, or contact the vehicle’s moving parts or exhaust system. It is vital that you verify that the seats and any related parts will not touch, or
interfere with other components of your motorcycle throughout the vehicle’s entire range of motion.
After 50 miles (80 kilometers) of riding, verify that the seat components and mounting are still tight and secure. It is your responsibility to
make sure that any accessory installation does not create an unsafe or illegal situation. An improperly mounted seat can interfere with the
vehicle’s operation and cause an unsafe riding condition.
