INSTALLATION
1. Using the 3/16 inch hex wrench included with the kit, remove the four screws that hold the two outside clamp halves to the fork brace.
2. Using the 5/32 inch hex wrench included with the kit, loosen, but do not remove, the four buttonhead screws that secure the fork brace to the remaining clamp halves.
NOTE
Use care not to scratch the fender while performing the following steps.
Figure 1. Positioning Fork Brace
3. See Figure 1. Position the fork brace, crossmember up, between the fork sliders so the clamp halves will clamp on the area just below the fork slider dust covers. Position the inside clamp halves just tight enough so they stay in position, but can still be rotated.
Figure 2. Installing Fork Brace Clamp Halves
4. See Figure 2. Loosely install the outside clamp halves.
5. By moving the fork brace from side to side and by rotating the fork slider clamps, make sure all components are square and in alignment. Snugly tighten the screws that hold the fork brace to the inside clamps first, then snugly tighten the screws holding the clamp halves together.
