STEP 14

As shown in PIC 7, place the 1/2" Bumper Pads between the new Back Plate and

the rear fender. Clean with an ammonia based cleaner such as window cleaner and

dry the rear fender where the Bumper Pad will be installed. Peel the adhesive tape

backing from the Bumper Pads, stack one on top of the other and stick to the

fender over the plastic plug.

NOTE:

The bumper pads are provided to avoid excess vibration to the plate

mount. The bumper pads may fit tightly when stacked and put in place

behind the plate mount.

STEP 15

Once you have the Back Plate secured you can install the license plate by gently

molding your license plate to the same bend as the back plate. PIC 8 Install the

license plate frame over your plate by getting all four supplied fasteners

(1/4”-20 X 7/16” flat socket cap screws) started first, then tightening them. This

will work better than tightening up one at a time.

NOTE:

Due to the varying sizes of license plates, modification of the plate may

be necessary to make it fit. If the plate fits loosely in the frame, adhesive

foam strips can be installed between the Back Plate and the license plate

to

help

stop

vibration

and

avoid

damage to the new frame or license

plate.


It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that all of the fasteners
(including pre-assembled) are tightened before operation of the
motorcycle. Küryakyn will not provide warranty coverage on

products or components lost due to improper installation or lack of

maintenance. Periodic inspection and maintenance are required on

all fasteners.


STEP 16

Remove the stock lens by grasping it firmly and pulling away from the chrome

housing while twisting. If the lens is difficult to remove, turn the lens until you

see a small “pry slot”. PIC 9 Insert a flat tip screwdriver in the slot and twist

gently until the lens pops out. Remove the bulb from the light socket by pushing it

inward gently and twisting it counter clockwise.

Küryakyn recommends the use of dielectric grease on electrical
connections.

STEP 17

Notice the position of the pins on the connector and install as shown in PIC 10.

Apply dielectric grease and push it in gently and turn clockwise. Using a

screwdriver in the slot on the connector may ease installation. PIC 11

STEP 18

Install the lens assembly by pushing it into the light housing until it snaps into

place.

STEP 19

Remove the left side saddlebag and side cover to gain room to route the

wire.

STEP 20

Route the wire from the signal filler panel along the OEM rear wire harness
that runs from the bottom of the fender up to the side cover. Use the pro-
vided cable ties to secure the wires together.


Secure all wiring from the newly installed and/or from
existing parts, away from any moving parts, pinch points or
extreme heat. Küryakyn WILL NOT issue a warranty on any

electrical component that fails due to pinched, crimped,

broken, abraded, melted or frayed wires.


STEP 21

Locate the 6-Pin connector wiring harness for the taillights. This is behind

the left (clutch side) side cover. PIC 12
