Instruction and user's manual
To install stabilizer you have to remove upper triple clamp, so the front end should be lifted so that the wheel touch the floor a bit, not to load the fork by the weight of motorcycle or the weight of the wheel
First, remove tank bolt, handlebar and handlebar clamps
To unscrew the handle bar clamp's nut use the wrench with long rod and flexile socket
Lock the steering stop to remove nut from the left side without holding the handlebar
Remove handlebar and clamps
OEM damper nuts will be used during assembly
To remove upper triple clamp the cable mount should be removed
Remove upper side bolts completely to unscrew lower bolts easily
Upper clamp is easy to remove and move to the side
Next, we recommend to align the frame bracket with the tank bolt to estimate how it fits
The brakcet has lips which should touch the top of the head tube all around
Most likely the rear part of the bracket doe not fit well because of the weld
To cut the weld accurate we recommend to paint it, so you can see the touch point
Procedure takes time but allows to cut the weld minimal
Bracket's bolts are installed with thread lock
When tightening the bracket, it is important to press it to the top of the tube, so that it does not skew
And control the gaps on both sides so that they are the same
New tank bolt is installed after the bracket is tightened
After install the upper tripple clamp
First tighten the nut with 100Nm torgue
After tighten side bolts with 22Nm torgue
Use OEM damper nuts with new clamp
When tightening the clamps nut we recommend to move the washer far from the steering axle, as it can touch bracket if fixed close to the axle
Install the cable mount and check the route of wires and cables
Handlebar clamps has two positions: standart and for tall riders
User thread lock for clamps bolts
Tower pin is installed at least flush with the lever while the black washer must not touch the lever
You can move the black nut in the vise or by hitting the rod
Grease the rod before installing
Fix the stabilizer with two bolts from the kit
Tower pin fits right if the bracket installed correctly
After installing the handlebar check it in all positions
Stabilizer has 24 position of resistance and preadjusted high speed resistance
Side bolt adjust the angle of stabilizer functioning
Now it's 44 degree - very convenient for an off-road motorcycle which is activly controlled on the low speed
