Bike Specific Install Notes and Tips

This is an aftermarket product that fits up different than the stock components, therefore, the installer may be required to

set up components and to route lines in the ?best way possible?, which may not always be listed on this ?Bike

Specific? installation sheet. In any case, the installation must allow the handlebars to reach both steering stops, with

out pulling taught or kinking any lines, and without damaging any part of the motorcycle

Important Installation Considerations


Special Kit Requirements/Installation Tips

1. Contact - Slight fairing contact is ok as long as the steering stops can be

reached with out damaging the fairing

2. Zip ties or brackets holding excess electrical lines will need to be cut or removed

to free up extra length.

3. Timming - Triple clamp underside has a protruding bolt that mounts the ignition

switch, which needs to be trimmed off, so Cyclops clamp can fully rotate.

4. Moving - Moving the clutch lever, and brake lever toward the center of the

motorcycle will allow greater upper fairing/windshield clearance


Handlebar Positioning

1. When the bars are in the down position, with the wheel straight, the clamps

should be rotated so the handlebar risers are at approximately the 10 and 2 -
O'Clock positions(as the rider is looking down at the top of the fork tubes) This
will allow clearance with fairing side pieces as you turn stop to stop.

2. When rotating the Cyclops clamps to move the handlebars away from the

windshield, you must raise the handlebar so the bottom of the riser is above the
fairing side pieces.

3. When the bars are in the up position, with the wheel straight, the clamps should

be rotated so the handlebar risers are at approximately the 7 and 5 - O'Clock
positions(as the rider is looking down at the top of the fork tubes) This will allow
clearance with the upper fairing and windshield as you turn stop to stop.

4. Some positioning will require having the Cyclops Clamps mounted down the fork

tubes away from the triple clamp.


Restrictions

1. Fairing side pieces or intake ducts interfere with the riser when rotating the

Cyclops Clamps. Raising the handlebar so the riser is above the fairing side
pieces before rotating the Cyclops clamps will solve this restriction. Trimming
the fairing side pieces could also increase convertibility.


Line Routing

1. Brake Line - Ensure line(s) and top fitting position does not interfere with

instrument panel, riser, Cyclops Clamp, and or brake lever.

2. Throttle Lines - Stock Length - Stock Routing
