o. Facing the tape, measure 6-3/8 in (162 mm) from the center line to the left side front Tour-Pak wall. Do not follow the curve of the wall, but measure straight across. See Figure 3 inset.
p. Lay a strip of 2 in (51 mm) wide masking tape from the bottom to approximately half way up the inside front Tour-Pak wall at the 6-3/8 in (162 mm) distance from the center line.
q. Measure again and mark the tape 6-3/8 in (162 mm) (5) straight across from the center line, near the top of the tape strip and again near the bottom of the strip. Draw a line from the top mark to the bottom mark.
r. For King Tour-Pak: Measure down 7-19/32 in (193 mm) (3) from the top edge of the Tour-Pak. For Chopped Tour-Pak: Measure down 4-19/32 in (117 mm) (3) from the top edge of the Tour-Pak. Draw a short horizontal line across the vertical line.
s. Mark the center of the crossed lines with a center punch, then drill a 1/8 in (3 mm) guide hole through the Tour-Pak front wall.
t. Lay a strip of masking tape on the outer surface of the Tour-Pak front wall, centered on the guide hole. Cut a hole in the tape at the guide hole.
u. From the outside of the Tour Pak drill a 3/4 in (19 mm) hole (4) through the guide hole to the inside.

Antenna Mounting
  1. See Figure 4. Obtain the antenna base assembly (2) from the kit. Remove the hex nut (7) and internal tooth lockwasher (6) from the plug assembly (5) on the base.
  2. Assemble the base gasket (8) to the antenna base.
  3. With the antenna mast stud (1) facing up, position the base assembly over the holes drilled earlier in the outside rear Tour-Pak wall. Be sure the plug assembly (5) goes through the larger (top) hole.
  4. Place the antenna reinforcement plate (9) in position inside the Tour-Pak. Obtain the ground cable (12) from the kit, and place the large ring terminal over the plug assembly. Use the hex nut (7) and lockwasher (6) to attach the ground cable to the plug assembly, but do not fully tighten at this time.
  5. Attach the other end of the ground cable to one of the mounting screws on the floor of the Tour-Pak.
    1. While holding the screw head, remove the nylon cap locknut, washer and spacer on the underside that fasten the Tour-Pak to the luggage rack side rail.
    2. Remove the screw and flat washer from the hole and install the small ring terminal of the ground cable onto the screw threads. Install the screw back into the hole.
    3. On the underside of the luggage rack, install the spacer (concave side up), flat washer and nylon cap locknut on the screw. With the spacer concavity in line with the luggage rack rail, hold the nut and tighten the screw to 96-120 in-lbs (10.8-13.5 Nm).
  6. Install the TORX® screw (10) and small lockwasher (11) through the smaller (bottom) hole of the antenna reinforcement plate into the antenna base. Tighten the screw securely. Tighten the hex nut securely.
  7. Thread the antenna mast assembly (1) onto the antenna base adapter.
Antenna Connection
NOTE
The antenna cable is attached to the frame member at the factory to protect it from damage until it is connected to the antenna.
  1. Refer to the service manual and follow the instructions given to remove the left side cover. Locate the coiled or bundled antenna cable (attached to the frame with a cable strap).
  2. Cut the cable strap holding the antenna cable.
  3. Route the antenna cable rearward to the front luggage rack mount, then along the inside of the luggage rack and up through the hole in the left front bottom of the Tour-Pak.
  4. Plug the antenna cable connector into the antenna base.
  5. Tighten the knurled nut to secure the connector to the antenna base.
  6. Make sure enough cable has been routed into the Tour-Pak so that the cable rests flat on the bottom of the Tour-Pak. Use cable straps (14) to secure the antenna cable to the Tour-Pak support as needed.
  7. Install the grommet (13) onto the antenna cable near the hole in the Tour-Pak. Carefully work the grommet into the hole to seal the opening around the cable.
  8. Install the rubber mat or molded liner. Close the Tour-Pak lid.
  9. Remove the outer fairing and windshield. Refer to the service manual.
  10. NOTE
    To prevent possible damage to the sound system, verify that the ignition/light key switch is in the OFF position.
  11. Locate the front end of the antenna cable (attached to the main harness with tape). Cut the tape holding the antenna cable.
  12. Route the antenna cable over to the radio.
  13. Plug the antenna cable connector into the back of the radio.
  14. Tighten the knurled nut to secure the connector to the radio.
  15. Use cable straps from the kit to fasten the antenna cable to the existing harnesses inside the fairing.
  16. Install the main fuse.
  17. Turn the ignition/light key switch to the ACCESS position.
  18. Test the radio for proper operation.
  19. Install the outer fairing and windshield. Refer to the service manual.
