understand as possible. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions

Please Read Before Installing
DENALI products should always be installed by a qualified motorcycle
technician. If you are unsure of your ability to properly install a product,
please have the product installed by your local motorcycle dealer. DENALI
takes no responsibility for damages caused by improper installation. Caution:
When installing electronics it is extremely important to pay close attention
to how wires are routed, especially when mounting products to the front
fender, front forks, or fairing of your motorcycle. Always be sure to turn the
handlebars fully left, fully right, and fully compress the suspension to
ensure the wires will not bind and have enough slack for your motorcycle to
operate properly.
Installation Tips
We strongly recommend using a medium-strength liquid thread locker on all
screws, nuts, and bolts. It is also important to ensure that all hardware is
tightened to the proper torque specifications as listed in your owner’s
manual. For included accessory hardware please refer to the default torque
specifications provided below. Inspect all hardware after the first 30 miles
to ensure proper torque specifications are maintained.

Hardware Sizing Guide
Not sure what size bolt you have? Use this ruler to measure screws, bolts,
spacers, etc. Remember, the length of a screw or bolt is measured from the
start of the “mounting surface” to the end of the screw, so only include the
screw head when measuring countersunk screws.
What’s In The Box?
Tools Required: 13mm Wrench
Note: This bracket can not be used if you have crash bars installed on your
bike, either factory or aftermarket. If you do have crash bars installed you
can use the Denali Crash Bar ClampMounts (LAH.00.10300.B) to install Denali
LED Light Pods in the same mounting location.
Installing The Light Mount
1.1 – Location Prep & Installation
Step One: Start by identifying and removing the factory hardware from the
mounting points. The two bolts are located above the bike’s radiator guard.
Step Two: Bolt the lower light mount bracket to the mounting surface
using the M8x20mm Hex Head (d) and a 13mm wrench. Note that the M8 Spacer (b)
goes in between the mounting surface and the bracket.
Note: With this installed, lights can be mounted either above or below
the bracket. If you’re mounting lights below the bracket refer to instruction
2.1 below. If you plan to mount lights on top of the bracket refer to
instruction 2.2 on the next page, also note that when mounting above the
bracket you will have to remove and replace the factory turn signals, see
Instruction 2.2 for details and recommendations.
Installing The Lights
2.1 – Installing Lights Below
Step 1: Install the light pods upside down with the swivel bracket facing
upwards to connect with the bottom surface of the bracket arms. The LED Light
Pods will be positioned just underneath the factory turn signals.
Step 2: On the left side of the bike you will need to use a zip tie
through the slot in the back of the bracket to secure bikes cables rearward to
keep them from rubbing the back of the light pod.
Installing The Lights
2.2 – Installing Lights Above
Note: Denali LED Light Pods can be mounted on top of this bracket in a
position that replaces the Pan America’s factory turn signal location. One
option to replace the turn signal is Denali T3 switchback turn signals which
can be flush mounted into your bikes handguards instead for a clean and modern
adventure look. You can also install a Denali DialDim Controller which has the
ability to make your driving lights flash as turn signals (amber lens
recommended).
Step One: Remove the side fairings on either side of the radiator guard
that cover the factory turn signals. They’re connected to the bike via screws
on the back of the housing. Step Two: Inside the side fairing is a
separate plastic cover, take out the screws holding it in place and remove the
cover and the factory turn signal from the side fairing. From here you can
disconnect the factory turn signal wires.
Step Three: Attach your LED Light Pods to the top of the Lower Light
brackets mounting surface. On the left side of the bike you will need to use a
zip tie through the slot in the back of the bracket to secure the bike’s
cables rearward to keep them from rubbing the back of the light pod.
Step Four: Reassemble the plastic cover to the side fairing without the
turn signal. You can now mount the side fairings back on to your bike and
adjust your installed Denali LED Light pods. The light Pods should sit
recessed back slightly from the front lip of the fairing and spaced evenly
from the top and sides of the walls.
