Honda CRF300L Handlebar Grips
Preparation
If the handlebar grips are not open at the end they will need to be cut open for the handguard to be fitted. Use a sharp knife to cut a hole in the end of each handgrip. On the right side the hole size should be neat and no smaller than the inside diameter of the throttle tube. Loosen the throttle assembly to move it outward about 20mm. Roll back the end of the grip and use a hacksaw to carefully cut off the end cap of the plastic throttle tube. Do not remove more than 3mm and take care not to cut the underlying handlebar. Before refitting, remove any burrs that could restrict throttle movement. You can also check our installation video on our Website.
Fitting Procedure
Shown for left side, repeat for right side with applicable parts.
Loosely assemble clamp and saddle (4) to the handlebar next to the
mirror/clutch lever bracket. Make sure to leave enough space for clutch and
brake switch and looms. See Image 1.
Loosely attach the handguard backbone to the handlebar end, spacer/s (9) and
bolts (7) & (8) as per diagram.
The preferred backbone position is horizontal or slightly below when viewed
from the side.
Tighten all bolts in the following order (7), (8) then (5) and (6) evenly.

Installation of the handguard is safety-relevant work and can be complicated.
We recommend the installation be performed by a motorcycle service technician.
Rideworx accepts no liability for damages caused by improper mounting. All
screws, bolts and nuts, including all replacement hardware provided by
Rideworx, should be tightened to the torque specified in the table. After the
first 50km of riding check all screws, bolts and nuts are tightened to the
correct torque. We recommend a medium strength liquid thread lock product on
all fasteners.

Check operation of all handlebar controls, specifically the throttle, front
brake, kill switch and clutch to ensure they are operating correctly and are
in accordance with the OEM specifications. Do not ride the motorcycle if any
controls are not operating correctly r if rear view mirror vision is
obscured. Check periodically that all bolts are tight.
