- Work on one side of the motorcycle at a time. Start by removing the fender. There are two screws on each side that need to be removed.
- Remove the two 10mm axle pinch bolts.
- Open the saddle bags and pull away the side covers with steady pressure to remove them.
- Remove the seat by unscrewing the socket head screws located under the front of the seat. Lift up the front of the seat and slide it forward. Unplug the connector for the heated seat under the right side cover. Keep all the removed parts and hardware for re-installation.
- Remove the fuse box cover and attach the +(red) and -(black) wire leads to the screws at the top left area of the fuse panel. Plug in the right and left light rings to test their functions. Unplug the lights and set them aside.
- If you want to use the run-and-turn function, plug the connectors into the corresponding sides of the Goldstrike 48000 harness (sold separately). Plug in the right and left light rings to test their functions. Unplug the lights and set them aside.
- Install the right bracket as shown in the picture, starting with the inside 10mm bolt first. Then install the second (outer) bolt. Hand-tighten both bolts, ensuring that the bracket stays parallel to the brake rotor.
- Tighten the bolts, alternating between them to ensure an even clamp load.
- Finally, torque the 10mm axle pinch bolts to the factory specification: 22 N-m, 16 lbf-ft.
