Bike Specific Install Notes and Tips: This is an aftermarket product that fits up different than the stock components, therefore, the installer may berequired 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
Intake duct covers need to be trimmed.Range of travel limited by fairing,intakes, and guages.Customize your riding position, but once set, little changeis allowed because of restrictions.
Special Kit Requirements/Installation Tips
- Contact - Slight fairing contact is ok as long as the steering stops can bereached with out damaging the fairing
- Trimming - Depending on handlebar position, the fairing side pieces(lowerfairing that is nearest the forks) may need to be trimmed for riser pipeclearance. Clamping a piece of wood(a straight edge) and using a dremel is recommended.
Handlebar Positioning: When the bars are in the up position, with the wheel straight, the clamps shouldbe rotated so the handlebar risers are at approximately the 7 and 5 - O'Clockpositions(as the rider is looking down at the top of the fork tubes)This will allowclearance with the upper fairing and windshield as you turn stop to stop.
Restrictions
- Upper fairing and or windshield can be trimmed for more rise.
- Foreword Positions restricted by instrument panel.
- Kit works well as a riser, but there are restrictions when converting to a lowerhandlebar position.
- Fairing side pieces or intake ducts interfere with the riser when rotating theCyclops Clamps.The Cyclops Clamps need to be rotationally positioned soriser is either in front of or behind the forks.Trimming the fairing side piecescould also eliminate this restriction.
