INSTALLATION
1. Some models may have a rear fender emblem which will interfere with the license plate relocation items. If one is present, carefully remove adhesive backed fender emblem taking care not to scratch painted surfaces. Clean area with isopropyl alcohol to remove adhesive residue.
2. Remove the license plate and license plate back plate (if equipped) from motorcycle. Save items for future use.
CAUTION
Always wear proper eye protection when drilling or grinding. Flying debris could cause serious eye injury. (00402e)
WARNING
Do not contact tire with drill bit when drilling fender holes. Drill bit contact with tire can lead to premature tire failure, which could result in death or serious injury. (00403f)
3. For models equipped with a rear fender tip, proceed to step 7. For models without a rear fender tip proceed to step 4.
4. Cut out template from sheet supplied in the kit. Carefully punch holes through the three positions indicated on the template. Position the template with the curved surface pointed down. Center the template on the fender, lining the curved lower edge of the template with the trailing edge of the fender. Tape the template into position on the fender. Carefully mark the location of the two mounting holes and wire harness access hole with a centerpunch.
5. Drill a 1/16 inch (1.5 mm) diameter pilot hole at each mounting hole center-punched location. Drill a 1/8 inch (3.1 mm) diameter pilot hole at wire harness hole location. Remove the template. Carefully drill a 9/32 inch (7.0 mm) diameter hole at each pilot location. Carefully drill a 5/16 inch (7.9 mm) diameter hole at wire harness hole location.
6. Protect the bare metal edges of the drilled holes with a high quality, chip resistant, air dry enamel touch up paint before proceeding. Allow the paint to dry thoroughly before completing the installation to protect against corrosion damage to the fender. Install grommet in 5/16 inch diameter hole. Skip to step 9.
