NOTICE
It is possible to overload the vehicle's charging system by adding too many electrical accessories. If the combined electrical accessories operating at any one time consume more electrical current than the vehicle's charging system can produce, the electrical consumption can discharge the battery and cause damage to the vehicle's electrical system. (00211d)
NOTE
Auxiliary/fog lamps are not included in this kit. The desired style of lamp must be purchased separately. HDI motorcycles should only use approved fog lamps.
If this lamp kit will be used with a windshield kit, refer to the instructions provided with that kit for the correct mounting sequence.

5. Place lockwasher (4) and washer (5) on two bolts (9). Insert bolts through lower holes in bracket (7) and through spacer (10). Thread into bottom holes of fork bracket and through trim panel finger tight.
6. Tighten right side bolts on bracket to 19 ft-lbs (26 Nm).
7. Attach auxiliary lamp housing (11) to bracket using hardware (12-16) in the sequence shown in Figure 6.
NOTE
The Belleville washer (13) must be positioned cupped side up.
8. See Figure 2. Place inner nesting ring on bulb. Connect bulb to item (1) connector.

9. Attach auxiliary LED lamp (17) and inner nesting ring (18) using outer trim ring (19), screw (20), and nut (21).
Auxiliary Lamp Wiring
NOTE
When wired as follows, the auxiliary lamps can only be operated while the main headlamp is on low beam. This conforms to most state and local laws.
1. Remove seat according to the instructions in the service manual.
WARNING
To prevent accidental vehicle start-up, which could cause death or serious injury, disconnect battery cables (negative (-) cable first) before proceeding. (00307a)
WARNING
Disconnect negative (-) battery cable first. If positive (+) cable should contact ground with negative (-) cable connected, the resulting sparks can cause a battery explosion, which could result in death or serious injury. (00049a)
2. Disconnect battery cables, negative (-) cable first.
3. See Figure 3. Route gray/black (power) wires and black (ground) wires from auxiliary lamps (1) into bottom of front fork panel to a location near switch. Cover wires to each lamp with vinyl conduit (24). Crimp both gray/black wires into one end of a butt splice. Use a small section of wire cable (23) and crimp into opposite end of butt splice. Crimp final end into spade terminal (22).
4. Attach connector (3) to the nearest terminal on the toggle switch (2).

5. See Figure 6. Remove tethered power lead from headlamp wires and attach connector (3) to remaining terminal on toggle switch (2).
6. Crimp both black wires into one end of butt splice. Use a small section of wire cable (23), crimp into opposite end of butt splice. Crimp final end into ring terminal (27).
7. See Figure 4. Use the 5/16 inch bolt that attaches upper bracket support for switch panel and grounds the ring terminal.
1Bolt, 5/16 in.
Figure 4. 5/16 Inch Bolt for Ring Terminal Grounding
8. See Figure 1. Attach left side panel (5) to front fork panel (3) under left side of auxiliary lamp bracket.
9. Route wires so they are not pinched between the trim panel and fork bracket. Use cable straps (25) to secure wires to fork bracket and motorcycle frame.
10. Tighten left side bolts on bracket to 19 ft-lbs (26 Nm).
Butt Splice Connections
1. Strip a 3/8 in. (10 mm) section of insulation from ends of three ground wires being spliced, the two wires from the auxiliary lamps and the ground wire with the ring.
2. See Figure 3. Insert two stripped ground wires to butt splice connector (5).
3. Insert the end of the ground wire with ring (4) to the opposite end of butt splice (5).

4. Match color of butt spice connector with cavity of crimping tool. Using a Packard Crimping Tool, crimp wires into the connector.
WARNING
Be sure to follow manufacturer's instructions when using the UltraTorch UT-100 or any other radiant heating device. Failure to follow manufacturer's instructions can cause a fire, which could result in death or serious injury. (00335a)
  • Avoid direct heat toward any fuel system component. Extreme heat can cause fuel ignition/explosion resulting in death or serious injury.
  • Avoid direct heat toward any electrical system component other than the connectors on which heat shrink work is being performed.
  • Always keep hands away from tool tip area and heat shrink attachment.
  1. Using Ultra-Torch, Heat Gun, or other suitable radiant heating device, heat crimped splice to encapsulate butt splice connection. Apply heat from the center of the crimp out to each end until meltable sealant exudes out of both ends of connector. Let splices cool.
  2. See Figure 6. Install auxiliary lamps (17) and trim rings (19).
Final Assembly
WARNING
Connect positive (+) battery cable first. If positive (+) cable should contact ground with negative (-) cable connected, the resulting sparks can cause a battery explosion, which could result in death or serious injury. (00068a)
1. Connect battery cables, positive (+) first.
2. Install seat according to the instructions in the service manual.
WARNING
After installing seat, pull upward on seat to be sure it is locked in position. While riding, a loose seat can shift causing loss of control, which could result in death or serious injury. (00070b)
WARNING
Be sure that all lights and switches operate properly before operating motorcycle. Low visibility of rider can result in death or serious injury. (00316a)
