INSTALLATION
| 1. | See Figure 1. Install the lower support bracket (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5), lockwashers (6), washers (7) and screws (8). Do not fully tighten. | |
| 2. | Tip the saddlebag forward and align the large diameter of the keyhole end of the lower support arm with the third point docking point. Rotate the saddlebag down so that the docking points on the strut cover slide into the slots of the bracket on the back of the saddlebag. | |

| 4. | Move the bag as far forward as possible and rotate the latch knob one-quarter turn. If the bag is seated properly, the knob should pop back in. Check behind the bag and verify that the latch is in the closed position. NOTE If the saddlebag is not seated, loosen the screws securing the lower support bracket to the saddlebag frame and slide the support rod forward or backward in its mounting slots. Tighten locknuts to 7–10 N·m (60–90 in-lbs) after seating the saddlebag. | |

| 6. | Repeat procedure for the opposite saddlebag. |
